    Throttle angle...Throttle position... It's the same thing, the TPS on the throttle body.

    well....what part of the throttle body is it on? I have 2 engines, one in my car and one for parts. I kinda need to know the location on the TB.

    Well, they're not easy to get off. Two rivet type things hold it on. Anyways, you know the place where the throttle cable connects to the throttle body? (It rotates when the cable pulls on it) Look at the other end of the shaft. Usually a black plastic type of thing with a 3 wire connector on it. That's a TPS. This is as simple as I can describe it for you.
