A-Premium Throttle Position Sensor for Ford V8 1985–1997 — Direct-Fit OE-Style Replacement

The A-Premium TPS Throttle Position Sensor is a direct-fit replacement sensor engineered to restore accurate throttle position readings for compatible Ford V8 models from the mid‑1980s to late‑1990s.

This throttle position sensor (TPS) from A-Premium is built to OE-style specifications to provide consistent voltage feedback to your engine control system. Made from durable plastic with three-pin bullet terminals and a female connector, it replaces worn or failing factory units across a wide range of Ford Bronco, F-Series, and Econoline vans. The unit ships with reference compatibility spanning multiple part numbers so technicians and DIYers can identify the correct fit quickly.

Which Ford models does this TPS fit?

This sensor is designed for older Ford vehicles with V8 engines. It covers Bronco, F-150, F-250, F-350 and many Econoline/E-150/E-250/E-350 model years listed by A-Premium, matching common factory throttle bodies from 1985 through 1997.

• Bronco: 1985–1995 V8 5.0L and 5.8L
• F-150/F-250/F-350: fit ranges 1985–1997 across various V8 displacements
• E-150/E-250/E-350 Econoline vans and Club Wagons: 1986–1996 model coverage depending on engine

How does this TPS match the original part?

A-Premium manufactures the sensor to meet OE standards so the form, fit and electrical connections align with factory expectations. It uses the same three‑pin bullet terminal arrangement and a female connector to plug into original wiring harnesses without splicing.

• Direct replacement for multiple reference numbers (e.g., 12339049, E5TZ9B989B)
• Three-pin bullet terminal layout with female connector for plug-and-play installation
• Black plastic housing crafted for corrosion resistance and consistent signal

What performance and durability features should I expect?

The unit is constructed from durable plastic and undergoes quality checks to ensure reliability under normal driving conditions. While not a performance upgrade, it restores proper throttle position feedback and helps eliminate issues caused by degraded sensors.

• OE-style materials and manufacturing for long service life
• Tested to meet electrical signal stability and fitment requirements
• Comes with a one-year unlimited-mileage warranty from A-Premium

How difficult is installation and what tools are needed?

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic automotive repairs. The sensor mounts to the throttle body and connects to the factory harness; typical replacement requires minimal hand tools and basic troubleshooting equipment if calibration checks are desired.

• Common tools: screwdriver or socket set, light, and safety gloves
• No wire cutting needed when replacing matching three‑pin connectors
• Quick visual alignment and electrical continuity check recommended after fitment

Who is this for? The A-Premium TPS is intended for vehicle owners, mechanics and restoration shops working on older Ford V8 vehicles that require a reliable OE-style throttle position sensor. If your Bronco, F-Series truck, or Econoline van shows throttle-related drivability symptoms or you need a factory-fit replacement for routine maintenance, this part provides a cost-effective, warranty-backed option that plugs into original harnesses and follows common reference part numbers for easy identification.
