I think you mean throttle pedal position sensor and most new gas engines also use them, I have a 2001 car with that set up. The ECU controls the thottle opening (or fuel flow on a diesel), not what the operator selects with the throttle pedal. I like the setup in my car because it seems to be responsive to not only throttle position is but also how fast I move the throttle, and on a 290hp V8 the gradual take up from idle makes it as easy to drive in the snow as a car with a much smaller engine.
