Re: Standalone ignition systems.



Actually, the 2.0L throttle body that has the little switch on the bottom is
not a good way to go.  First, the TB is restrictive and would take ALOT if
even possible to bore the restrictor out of the primary side of the TB (it's
not a pop out type like the older ones were).  Plus, the TPS you are
refering to is only a throttle switch.  It tells you when the throttle is
closed, when it is between closed and full throttle, and when it is full
throttle.  A TPS is a potentiometer that gives you a reading for every
position from closed to wide open.  I am not saying it won't work, just
depends on the demands of the fuel system. If it needs a TPS, this won't
work, if it only needs switches, this switch would work.  HTH!!
