Throttle Position Sensors

Looking for a 3 wire 'D' Type Drive Throttle Position Sensor

Have Had issues with the COLVERN ones in the past not lasting and causing fuelling issues etc


Has anybody found a Good solid reliable one and if you have where from ?

Wondered if anybody had found one off a normal production car that could be used ?

Looked at the 'Contactless' ones and although i beleive they're very good, there also around £100 a go

/\ that looks a lot like the one on my Triumph throttle bodies - I've got a few of those spare since I use two sets for a V6 , and remove one to fit the linkage - I could bung one in the post ?

The Ford ones are pretty good - Duratec ones can be clockwise or anti clockwise depending on models.
