IIRC the TPS is mounted on the rear of the engine on those. You have to set it up with certain tolerances once you replace it. You would have to find the specific settings.

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

The injection pump is on the front top of the motor. If you don't know why post anything. And why would the tps be on the back of the motor. The tps almost always is in the vicinity of where the accelerator cable connects to the motor.
