Yeah ill try thepot. again instead of puttin 300 bucks into a tps, What is the exact pot i need and is there anytricks to puttin it in. Will my cruise control work? will it shift 1-2-3-4 or will it shift 1-2-4 , will it skip 3rd gear if you dont turn o/d off, do you have to turn o/d off when making a stop and turn the button on when wanting it to shift into fourth gear. thanks for the input
