    Default Does anyone have a scanner and a V8 service manual?

    Hey all,

    I'm collecting evidence for my court case discussed in another forum ( HELP, i'm getting rorted by my mechanic! )

    I was wondering if someone could scan for me the pages that talk about the throttle body and TPS, i basically just need to confirm that the TPS connects directly to the throttle shaft and works independently of the accellerator cable (will still work fine even if the cable is stuffed).

    THANKS HEAPS

    as a mechanic i can confirm for you that the tps is conected directly to the throttle shaft other wise how would it register what position the throttle shaft/butterfly is in?

    Cheers man, but my problem is that i need something to show the magistrate. If i can show him a copy of that section of the repair manual it will look a lot better than something i've printed off a website.

    Spend the $30 on a new one, that way you will have it for future reference when you do work yourself.
