-havent really checked it out, just looked at it real quick and it was dark out but it doesnt lok like there's scews in the back?? Thanks for any input*


(quick blurry phone pic.)

pretty sure you have to take the throttle body apart....

whaaaaa thats F%&$#@ up haha they gave me hex key screws with the new one...hmm

Memory is fuzzy but I think you have to cut grooves with a dremel and then screw it out with a screwdriver.

It's not meant to be a replaceable item and that's why Honda doesn't sell it separately. You'll need to set it to spec using a multimeter. And you'll need a new gasket. Did your TPS come with one?

I found it much easier to get a used throttle body.

yea heres a pic of the new one
do you kno what the spec is it should be set at?

I replaced mine with the same one you got. I did what suspendedHatch said and cut a groove in the head and they will screw out. Then I just went to the hardware store and found the same thread screw and replaced them

~0.5v closed throttle

~4.5v open throttle
