    There is no other contributing factor unless your motor was on its way out anyway, but even then a TPS CEL needs to be fixed regardless or motor condition.

    Your sarcasm and the little smilies you were using kinda hinted that you were trying to place blame on someone else IMO
    Ok. My fault Vteckidd... didn't mean to disrespect you.

    Well, I'm just gunna replace the TPS, and go from there. But just for future reference, don't be so condecending. It's been a tough summer for me, and all I want to do is finish my car. Actually, I think this was your old car before. But anyway, the motor had 200k on it, so it was passed its prime; tommorow is a new day/engine.

    I may not do everything the right way, but I'm tryin, soooo. yea. . Oh yea, since I'm an un-employed nihilistic threat, I had 2 much free time... this is what I get for trying to do everything myself. ... you win some and you lose some. I've got the motor out without the help of any of my fellow IA friends...
