You have to pull the computer in the passenger side kick panel and get the numbers off of it. I just ordered one for my car from late model restoration...works great. Didn't have to pull my computer numbers.

You use a stock TPS. The size of the throttle body makes no difference.

Buy the MOTORCRAFT brand TPS. $40. Part number CX1133

The alternat part numbers for it are E6AF9B989CA, E6AF9B989DA, E6AZ9B989C.


BTW, if you look at your TPS, there will be a part number on it.

Yeah, don't sweat it man. I'm not sure what the deal is with multiple part numbers if they are from the same manufacturer. It might be that one is slotted and one is not? Either way, there's no real need for a slotted TPS unless something very specific is done to the tune or you're running an EEC that does not have an adaptive capacity.

I wouldn't worry about it. I've snagged so many spare TPS over the years than I have no idea what one is on my car and if it should be there or now
