Re: O2 sensor and TPS: What do they do, and their relative importance?
So without a TPS, I'm probably having acceleration issues, and without O2 sensors, I'm probably not getting my full miles per gallon? And presumably acceleration problems leads to lower mpg anyway. Is there anything else that could be very wrong due to not having those sensors?

Also, I priced the repair at several mechanics, and one of them claimed that if the TPS is out, I will need a new distributor. Is he selling me snake oil because I'm a clueless female?

Thanks.
