So today after i gassed up the jeep i started it and it threw a check engine light. WONDERFUL! So after praying it would make the hour drive home *which she did* i went to autozone and had them pull the code. Turns out my TPS needs to be replaced. No biggie, 2 screws i know that.
I was looking online and came across this site that has them for only $33 while everywhere else has them for +$50

It's the very first one. Let me know what you think if its legit or if i should just get it from autozone?
Or i found this one on ebay.

What it will cost you for shipping and how long you have to wait for the part will determine if Rock Auto is good for you. IF you can wait and with shipping its Cheaper than a local shop then go for it.
If your Jeep stops running due to the TPS and your waiting a week for the new one to arrive I'm betting you'll wish you spent a few bucks more at the local shop.

They are almost the same anyway...

Im going out of town so the XJ is going to be sitting for awhile. Thats why i was considering ordering it online because im going to be gone for 3 weeks so shipping time isnt an issue. I went and ordered the one off of ebay. Thanks guys.

hmmm ... sensors aren't something I would ever cheap out on again. I've tried that in the past and every aftermarket sensor I have ever put on my Durango, ZJ or XJ have always caused me multiple problems, and mucho bucks until I swapped them for OE sensors. Every last one. Now when I need a sensor, I just go straight to the dealer & bend over ...
Could be I just have bad luck ...
