The mechanics said that the CAI is flowing air too fast and the computer can't keep up so the TPS burned up. Any help appreciated! 2000 Tropic Green SVT Contour Back to stock.....? 1991 Mustang GT Oxford white Lots 'O Mods awaiting P1-SC this summer

Is there a CEL you could share with us? Has this code come up everytime the sensor has went out? Phillip Jackson `98 Mystique LS 262K+ and counting...
