88 3sfe TPS, what years/models are compatable Options

[97lestyousay]

My neighbor has an 88 st he changed motors in from a usdm to a jdm 3sfe the throttle bodys are totally different so he may have more issues than just this.
His tps has no cover and all the contacts are bent all to hell and I tried to explain to him, uh dude thats not going to work like that. I was wondering what years interchange so I can try and find him one.

We put a used tps in and tried it, it wasn't getting spark so we started checking fuses, he remembered he had pulled the efi relay.
It fired right up then promptly died, now it seems to be getting good spark. It appears it is getting fuel to the rail but the injectors are not opening, if you let it set, it will fire up for a second, then dies like enough is bleeding thru the injector, or maybe the cold start cold start injector is working. I pulled a wire from an injector and had him, turn it over while checking it with a multimeter, I got no voltage, but I am not sure if you would be able to tell anything that way.

Any suggestions, I had a sort of similar problem with my corolla gts and it turned out to be the ignitor, but he said it was fine with the other engine.


Someone come fix this thing, so I can get back to playing battlefield uninterupted.lol
