You can actually use ANY type of YB TPS providing the top and bottom
wires are switched around if required and as long as its aligned correctly.
Technical explanation.......
This is because it is wired as a potential divider.
I.E. it is a resistance of which a fixed voltage of 5 volts is applied across
it and a wiper "selects" a voltage based on position.
The sweeping scale is linear.
I.E. a fixed amount of movement produces the same voltage change on
the output across the whole movement.
As electrically its wired as a potential divider and NOT a variable resistance,
the actual resistance of TPS makes no difference to the operation other
than the amount of power it will consume which is milliamps anyway.
wires are switched around if required and as long as its aligned correctly.

I have an old one on my car now, but i can se on the haltech-livemap that there is some "holes" on the log when throttle is aplyed so want to change it before the next session.
Will buy the pf09/4 againso everything fits back again
