Sup,
I have done some post and have found out that my problem might be this, or most likely is this...I have a high idle..not all the time but starting to occur more often. It was suggested that the TPS/Throttle body would need replaced, either new or old. Well I work at the Honda Plant in Marysville, OH, went to the service/parts center...the will only sell the whole kit..injectors and all..somewhere in the $600 dollar range. Anyway..what can I do, need to do, to get this replaced cheaper. Can I do this myself? I am not a mechanic..but am not stupid either, I think I could figure it out if it is not to technical. Any help/suggestions are greatly appriciated!!!

problem is you cant buy the TPS seperate honda wont sell it that way, the only way to get one is find a junked car and pull it off of it.

yep. they are attached to the Throttle body so you will have to buy it all as one.

Thanks for the replies. I am getting the Haynes Manual in the mail today/tomarrow. Do I need to get the injectors and all? What should I ask for from the u-pull-it place? Or what should I pull/take off?
Just getting into this "honda" thing appriciate ALL the HELP!!!!!

you could take the fuel injectors or the whole fuel rail for that fact. if they want to pull it for some reason, just tell them you need the whole TB.
