Anyone source out a good place to get a TPS? I priced one at my local parts house and it was $114.... Im thinking that a bit expensive.

Try www.car-part.com

I believe Nix99 up near SEA might be a good candidate for a junkyard for ya.

Also keep an eye on fleabay.

toyota junkyards in Seattle are too proud of their parts, they sell their parts close to the new price at your local parts store...

Here is a little trick I use when dealing with junk yards. I tell the parts guy I need some "interior parts" and then grab a bunch of stuff and put in a cardboard box. Some of it is junk that I wont use but looks official and clogs the visual cortex. Along with these parts there might be a TPS.... or a Power steering idle kick up valve... or an ignitor.. perhaps a fuel rail. One or two things will happen at the parts counter for check-out. The guy will quickly glance at the box and say something like $20... or he'll pick through it and catch the expensive parts. If he catches them and snorts out an inflated price I just decline to buy them. Thats my meathod.

Good used part site... saved that one to my favorites
