Hi Guys,
I have a problem with my 1998 Jeep TJ 2.5L. I have had a weird rattling coming from what seems to be the cat Converter. I went to the dealer and they said it was shot "of course". I ran on it for a few months cause I didn't have the money to change it, but now the TPS sensor went away on me.
My Question, Can I repair the TPS sensor only for now, and wait for the Converter later? Another Garage I went to said that the TPS is linked to the converter and because the converter is gone, it blew the TPS sensor. Is that possible and related?
Also, I was thinking cheap way to go (understand my financial situation is bad, otherwise I would have replaced it) What if I took out the core of the Converter and left it empty and put a new TPS sensor. if there is a relation between the two, then would the TPS be affected by the empty Cat or not?
Any info appreciated.
Thanks guys!
