"TPS" = Throttle Position Sensor. It's the sensor that tells the computer how far your foot is into the throttle. It should be connected to the butterfly valve that opens to allow more air into the engine.

It should be.
Assuming you are asking about engine displacement, all 1997 Outback models built in the US used a 2.5 liter engine. That is 2500 cubic centimeters.
3230 pounds
You could be low on coolant, a stuck thermostat, engine fan not coming on for starters. If still overheats, I would recommend taking it to a Subaru dealer.

If this is the 2.5 liter engine it is located where the lower radiator hose bolts to engine not at the top of the engine manifold, spring goes towards engine.
