Was having a problem where I would get about a mile into a drive and I would lose power and it would stop. I could crank it over right away and it would be good. Happened the last 2 times I drove it.
Found that my MacGyver fix with small bail wire did not hold on my TPS connection. I had asked Mark a couple of years ago if had one but at the time he did not.
So I will ask out here on the form if someone might have the 3 wire bail to hold the connector in place. Will pay what is needed.
Looks like the one below. This one is for a 2 wire injector wire.
Do you want to just replace the connector with one that has the type of lock that doesn't require removal? I know it's a bit of a pain, since you can't really depin those connectors, but that would solve your problem for good.
How did you MacGyver one?
Go to a local hardware store and get some music wire of the appropriate diameter and try again.
I use music wire to make springs for gunsmithing all the time.
