These are all potentiometers
The only sensors that I am aware of on the throttle body is the throttle position sensor.
As the name implies the throttle position sensor tells the engine computer where the throttle blade is. As you depress the throttle the throttle position sensor tells the engine computer that you are accelerating and coupled with other sensors how much fuel to deliver thru the fuel injectors. If you let off the accelerator the throttle position sensor tells the engine computer to return to idle speed, and the engine computer reduces fuel flow accordingly. Without the throttle position sensor the engine computer will figure it out via other sensors but response will be slower. When you let your foot off of the accelerator it may not return to idle as quickly or idle may be rough as the engine computer tries to figure out how much fuel to deliver.
No. Not that I've seen or heard of.
1974 models does not have throttle positions sensors. 1974 models have a carburetor. Only models with fuel injection have throttle position sensors. Sounds like someone is pulling your leg.
Throttle position sensor is located at the throttle body. There are only two sensors there. The one facing the firewall is what you are looking for.
Its on the throttle body, the thing your accelerator linkage attaches to it senses position of the blade inside and sends signal to computer. Usually 2 screws and a plug in connector. For safety reasons the screws will be very hard to remove without damage, let a pro do it. Sensors are fairly cheap.
All throttle Position Sensors are on the throttle body
Oxygen, temperature, speed, throttle position.
The throttle position sensor is a potentiometer.
If it is an 3.7L or 4.7L engine it is on the throttle body mounted on the side. If it is a hemi engine there are two throttle position sensors. The throttle body is electronic. There is a position sensor mounted underneath the battery hidden behind a cover. The accelerator cable goes from the gas pedal to this sensor. This sensor sends info to the PCM (powertrain control mondule). There is also another position sensor inside the electronic throttle body which tells the PCM what position the throttle plate is at. These throttle bodies on the hemi engines become dirty and cause codes like a P2175 and 2106. It will also make the ETC light flash, and cause low acceleration and limp in mode problems. Cleaning this throttle body will correct this.

If you're facing engine in front of car, the throttle position sensor is on the left side of the throttle neck. You will see two sensors there. One up high and one which is lower on the throttle neck. The highest sensor on the throttle neck is the TPS.
