i hate my car

[fleali88]

got my new tps, went to install it, didnt realize i was gonna have to remove the throttle body to get to the damn screws, i broke the gasket when i removed the throttle body, and one of the screws is stripped on the tps. so i have taken 2 steps backwards. car idles worse now. so tomorrow ill go get a new gasket, and some how finnagle that screw out, and hopefully buy a new screw. ugh im pissed lol

When you go to put the screws back in, go to Lowes and get new ones. Because your most likely going to snap them, I did on both, they are very soft screws. So avoid the additional frustration and get them ahead of time.

well i wont have a screw to compare it to, because i only have this car lol, do you know the screw or part number it is? or how i could find out?

Since you have the throttle body off,just take it and your TPS to the hardware store and get the screws you need.The dealer wants about four or five bucks for them.

Well I have to drive this car to work every day so I put everything back on, I only have one car lol. I might just take 1 screw off
