[QUOTE="bikerschim, post: 113999"] Yup, this forum has save my bacon more than once! Follow up on the TPS for my FJR I got from Gary at University Motors. The removal/install is a snap - [B][I][U]IF[/U][/I][/B] you have the correct tools. Prop up the fuel cell (gas tank) and on the right side you will find the pesky TPS.
