Default Thottle Body Question

Alrite I have a 1993 accord lx with a stock F22a1 engine. My TPS sensor has gone bad on the throttle body and I do not have a local machine shop to bore out the rivet keeping it on. Plus I dont want to risk breaking cracking the dam thing. So Im playing it safe and just going to buy a brand new aftermarket throttle body. Also I am going to put a Cold air intake on my car as well so Does anyone have any idea on what throttle bodies are compatible with my engine????

You don't need a machine shop to bore out the rivet. That rivet is really a bolt that looks like a rivet on top. If you can cut a slot across the rivet using a dremel, you can use a screwdriver to remove the bolt.

There are aftermarket TPS that you can buy.

If you want to go with the throttle body route, I would look up the TB on a site like car-part.com and see what other vehicle's TBs fit. You can also look up the TB OEM number on a site like hondapartsnow.com. Just click on the OEM part number and click on the links at the bottom to see all the vehicle the TB will fit.

Or you can go to the junkyard and get a throttle body off any 90's Honda and either use the TPS or the whole throttle body
