    Default VR V6 TPS problem.

    G'day all,
    I changed my TPS on the weekend, and the car ran worse than it did before I changed it! GD!! Dont ya hate that! Well on investigation, I found that the little plastic insert must have fallen out when I took the old TPS off. I looked for it, but I had already mowed the lawn in the spot where I did the job, so it is history I'm afraid. Can anyone tell me if this little insert is hard to find? The car is 16 years old so I cant see Holden still having it, but I have been wrong before. Do I try a wrecker? or what? Any help or advice would be appreciated. I think when you buy a TPS they should supply one in the pack just in case, seeing as how so many people lose them, or so it seems from a little search of past posts in this forum!
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Well, miracles do happen!! I looked in the pile of grass clippings thinking it was a very long shot, and, lo and behold, I found the dang thing!!! I think I will go and buy a lottery ticket. It was literally like the proverbial needle in a haystack, but I found it. Now all I gotta do is put it in without losing it again, its a tiny little sucker!!!
