240sx throttle body TPS type?

[Juarez88]

So My car doesn't have a TPS and is using a 60mm throttle body from a 240sx. It runs, and appears to run ok (little rich) and everyone who sees it tells me something is wrong and I need to get one.

 

The issue is, I understand that there are several 240sx TPS and not all of them are compatible with a stock 81/82 ecu, right? I found dozens of them on ebay and some have 2 wire and 3 wire connectors, which do I need?

 

3 wire

2 wire

Thanks!

 

 

 

EDIT: After looking at both links, just noticed that both are 3 wire, just didn't notice it in the black and white photo. Anyone know which one to use?

Either one would work. You would use the TPS plug itself if running the stock ECU (I think the stock plug works too).

 

You would use the pigtail connection if you were running an aftermarket ECU such as Megasquirt.
