I had A freind of mine who owns an auto repair shop scan my car and the last thing that came up was the throttle positioning senson. It was not as hard to get to as the other sensors. It is behind the thermostat housing. You can not get to it when the van is hot though. Any way it cost 49.99 at Pep boys (auto zone did not have it). But in the end I am happy to have my van back!!!!! :ylsuper:

Nice job. Glad you got your ride back on the road. If i could suggest, in the future for some things, you can find them in a local boneyard for much cheaper. Most boneyards also will offer 30 day warranties on some parts, though electrical parts are difficult to get anyone to stand by. But if you have TPS troubles, or other sensors or sending units, in most cases a like model, used one, will suffice as well. Sometimes you have no choice but to go new, but for me, THAT's always a last option that I look at. Hey, owning, fueling and insuring our cars/vans is already expensive enough. Ya gotta always try to save a buck on 'em if ya can. :)
