Hope you do too Lou...make sure you check the sensor with your old on before you leave the store, though...lol. The guy at Advance...I put the sensor on, truck wouldn't crank, just sat there and rotated. Got it to start, then took it for a test drive....it wouldn't shift out of first.

Pulled the TPS back off, looked at the box, the part number was right, but the TPS itself didnt look AT ALL like the one I took off.

Took it back to Advance, someone put the wrong TPS in the box...they exchanged it out for the correct one. Installed it, reset the PCM, now shes running great. MUCH better acceleration, much better idle.

Thanks for the help guys!

Changed mine today seems better at idle but have not road tested it yet. That will be my drive to work tomorrow.I plan on removing the throttle body and cleaning it really well in the next week,including the idle control thing.
