I like to find any information about the throttle angle sensor. As far as i know you have to change whole throttle body . Is't there an easier way? Any info will help. I tired of service light coming on and car running in limp mode. In limp mode the car has no power and lower gas mileage. I have ran car for two years with service light on and off. The car runs so good until service light comes on. I would love to find a way to fix this problem.. please help!

88civic lx with 1.5 motor it has athrottle angle sensor on it not throttle position . They use sherer bolts to hold it on the throttle body .The haynes book says its unadjustable.

TAS=TPS

they're the same thing...just different names.
You can use a hack saw to cut slots into the top and then unscrew them and loosen them. Then you can adjust it...or if it is bad, you can get one from any other 88-91 civic or crx dx.
