Review on Enhanced Motorcraft DY1164 Throttle Position Sensor by Duane Kerr

Revainrating 5 out of 5

True excellence is best at throttle position

Purchased to replace my old OEM TPS sensor on my 2009 Ford Mustang GT. This is the 3rd generation (latest design version) version of the Ford TPS sensor where Ford has improved the accuracy, quality, precision and reliability over the previous 2 design versions (original 1st generation version with rounded end and sloped sides, 2nd generation). with rounded ends and straight sides). My old 1st gen OEM TPS sensor was losing accuracy on the low end of the voltage scale (where most daily driving is idling to around 2000rpm), resulting in slower and erratic throttle response at the throttle tip, excessive lag the gas recirculation at idle and too much resulted in throttling. hunt idle. Replaced it with this unit and it really made a difference in idle (smooth idle, engine idle is very stable now), throttle response (better TPS signal quality helps the PCM do more accurate LOAD calculations using MAF data, which improves fuel delivery and Ignition improves timing) thus improving engine response) and there is virtually no engine lag, which now returns to idle due to throttle lag. Use as a replacement for any Ford, Lincoln or Mercury vehicle that uses this type of TPS sensor, period.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Mostly good but...
