01+3.8 Throttle Body experts in here !!!!

[crabmeat]

i purchased a half shafted and polished TB. teh problem is that it does not match up with my 2002 v6 TB. the one i got is a 01+ TB but on the butterfly valve mine has one little hole in the center and the letters C & G stamped on it. the one i purchased has 2 little holes and the letters D & D stamped on it. i also need to buy a new Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) for the one i purchased but now i don'e know exactly what i have. any help here ?????

2002 is 01+

00-01 is the same TB. 02+ is different. The TPS is the same on all TB's 99+.

Ah, so the 02s have the two holes for in the plate like the 99s? Odd that ford would
change back and forth. You don't need a new TPS, just reuse the stock one you have. The throttle cable linkage is correct, right?

Pretty much.
