Blue box shows the self amalgamating tape wrapping the TPS/silicone joins. The red line shows the GiF patented two-capstan method of testing the system! The new Variohm TPS is connected to the loom, the throttle capstan is connected to the throttles but not the loom.

This shot illustrates the Bournes/Varihm colours to be joined, as set out in the attachment to Post 10 above. NOTE the OEM Red TPS pigtail colours are NOT the same as the Bournes colours. Post 10 shows the correct connections to the OEM Loom plug for Variohm, OEM Bournes and OEM red TPSs.

Note that on the top two holes in the photo there is not much clearance between the OEM holes and the edge of the plate. This is because the long mounting spacers for the capstan have to be clear of the new plate to fit the capstan properly.

When the plate is made and fitted, the TPS will be positioned using a multimeter, then two holes maked for the fixing screws for it. These will them be drilled and tapped for two 3mm fixing bolts

ALL 5.3 litre capstans have these screw holes, originally they directly fixed the Bournes TPS; when the later red TPS was used, Jaguar supplied a fitting kit that still used these threaded holes. This shows the template I have made to use to cut a 3mm steel spacer plate to fill up the space between the TPS and the bottom plate

Test fitted, note the space between the TPS and the bottom plate, this is caused by a circular raised part of the capstan body.

31mm long, 3.5mm slot in the spindle end. If a D drive TPS was selected, the shaft would have to be removed from the fixing disc and a longer D ended 8mm diameter shaft fixed to it, to engage into the TPS
