Default Can't Find Corvette Throttle Position Sensor Test Tool
Hi All,
I am in the market to buy a 1985-1991 Corvette Throttle Position Sensor Test Tool. I checked out Mid America and they are totally out of them. They said they probably will not have any for 3 months. Can anyone tell me where I can find one to buy? Thanks,

Matt

Not sure who else sells them, but Mid America has a listing on eBay and it says they have 3 in stock

If you put the money towards a scan tool, you will spend more up front but less further on and have more functionality.

A cheap digital volt meter works fine and can be used for other things. Or a scan tool as aklim mentioned.

Or the better ones that can do things with an Amp clamp or thermometer? Probably more durable. Not cheap but few things in life are cheap AND good.

I would add to multimeter - tachometer with inductive pickup.
