Throttle position sensor

Hi all,

I've got a 1984 Voyager that I just finished restoring and it looks fantastic. However I think the TPS is making the engine hunt a little at idle. I heard that there was a guy in Europe who did some research and found a TPS replacement for the 13s. Does anyone know who this guy is? Or does anyone know where I can get a TPS from? Thanks MIke

Hi Samootin

the only guys I could think of doing this in Europe is Wilfried Büchsenschütz.

Maybe get in contact with him directly:

der6Zylinder@web.de

However as he is not that well with Englisch I recommend to desribe exactly what you need, possibly with
a picture ?

Kepp my fingers crossed for you ...

regards,

After reading your post I started doing so looking. If the one guy does not have any thing there is a few things we can try but it going to take a bit of work. Your throttle sensor reads in milly volts up to 5 volt. It can read back words or forwards. that is the first thing we need to know. 2. you need to take a picture of where the shaft goes in and measure it so we know how big it is and if there is a flat side to it. 3. how far apart the mounting holes are and that way we may beable to cross match it with some thing else out there.
Every thing I am reading its no longer made and it fit 12 different bikes.
I have found there is always a way to cross match something to a discontinued part.

I am not familiar with the injection on the Z1300 but is it a Bosch system like some of the early Kawasakis had.
If so check out the BMW K series gear as there is a lot of it around and still available new as well.
