Seriously can't find my TPS connector
 
Ok so heres the deal the car is a 87 turbo
When i bought it the TPS was broke so it wasn't even connected, i drove the car like that, i know you shouldn't but i got used to it its kinda like having an older vehicle with a carb hehe.
Anyway i finally decided to replace it but heres the problem, i serisouly can't find the connector for it anywhere, i also don't see any wires where it looks like it woulda been cut off at :(

Dont sweat it. The only thing your going to hurt is your gas mileage. TPS is used for reducing emissions at idle, and saving fuel while coasting down hill in a manual trans application. Auto trans application would have a second point of contact and thereby in act the kickdown.
Would you like a picture of the connector? Pins where it connects to the ecu? Or just simply tell you that the connector is a figment of your imagination, and that its wireless operated...

would a bad TPS cause bad idle?

Ok i was checking it out agian today, and found these wires taped up to the wiring harness so i didn't see them befor.
They are on the drivers side of the engine.

Do these look like the wires that would go to the TPS connector? i assume the whole connector was cut off at one point.
