Default Throttle spindle orientation



rebuilt my throttle with the at work kit. Everything went together just fine, but on putting it in, I found that the TPS interfered with whatever sensor is right below the throttle. In order to get the TPS to turn around, the whole spindle has to be reversed. Is it ok as- is, or does it really need to go the other way around?
