Don't know whats wrong....


thats pretty much it. i put a new throttle body on but the bolt broke during the application so i put the old one back on. set the tps to .95 and the car still does not run quit right. any ideas of what might be going on...is there any common problems that result from swapping throttle bodies...im really confused and any help is greatly appreciated..

Not really should bolt right on? How does it not run right? Idle, driving what?
