G,day all,I was wondering if anyone knows if a M13A and a M18A throttle body share the same throttle positioning sensor?
Or are they different? :roll:
Also if I still have the 1.8 TPS on instead of the 1.3 TPS is it possible that it could cause some probs?

well it got the better of me so I went out and took off the 1.8 TPS and compared it to the 1.3 TPS and the rotating thingy inside is at a different position to the 1.3,so I tried it any ways and it was reluctant to rev with the 1.3 TPS on the 1.8 TB,but while the 1.8 TPS was off I gave it a clean with electronics cleaner and after re-installing it hunts when idling now,not a great deal,hovering between say 750 and 850 rpm, maybe it's buggered,suzuki said $295 for a new one.
I have also heard they can be calibrated???
Any ideas anyone

UPDATE......been driving around all weekend and I noticed yesterday that it was back to Normal,I really thought it was knackered,guess not,it seems to be as it always was,which is good so when the new TPS comes in,I may tell them I don't need it anymore,strange that it righted itself,but I'm glad bout that Armsup
