Hi, I am having problems with my tps in my firebird 2000 V6 and I was told that you normaly have to replace the throttle body and sensors in this type of car. My questions is can I just replace the sensor and secound, I can only find senseors for V8 and not a V6. Thank you.

The reason why you can only find it for 5.7/V8 bcuz the 3.8L don't come with it.

I've check for a 3.8L and still couldn't find a TPS to go with your 3.8-all its giving me is for a 5.7/350 engine not for your year/make/model.
