Go to the RV Chassis Parts web site and see for the 8.3C mechanical engine that there is a "Bracket, TPS" available for around $145. The pin that the sensor cable attaches to, via a slotted cable end, is part of this bracket. The pin on mine was nearly wore thru and gave erroneous info to the system ie low counts. The bracket is easy to replace from the passenger side access door to the engine, assuming your's is like mine. Also when assembling be sure to put a healthy dab of grease on the connection as there is no other provision to lube this junction and is the ultimate reason they fail. Other connections in the area have grease fitting type connections, but not this one, so lube it ocassionly.:( Yeah, the parts not that cheap, but I went this way rather than risk a makeshift solution to the problem.
