So I went by the chevy dealer, talked to a mechanic who works on older vets on the side, he said I need a new tps module. The only problem is no one has them, they are discontinued. So off to the salvage yards on monday. Thanks for all the help getting her running. Jeff

On what basis was that determination made. How does one leap from a no fuel pressure problem to the TPS. That unit has more to do with a drivability and smooth running situation and really nothing to do with fuel pressure.

Please make this connection for me

Not sure why he thinks its the issue but the pins were completely corroded and the circuit board is ruined, I tried the parts stores and they dont have them.

Hopefully I'm wrong, but thinking you need to find a new mechanic.

We are talking about the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)?
