Yeah, pics would help. Red clip does sound like an injector clip. And the TPS is on the side of the throttle body closest to the front of the engine, not that having it unplugged would cause your problem...

The ge can run with out the tps plugged in as it will use the afm to determine what the throttle position is at, but it should be hooked up.

The red clip could also be a vsv.

Is it like the first pic or the second?

the vsv's under the manifold are likely not your no start problem.

You cant find anything to plug into the tps? do i understand this right?

when was the car last running, did you just do a HG?

yeah the red clip was for vsv and for the injector pulse the logic probe was bad....yeah....but there was a next problem. there was fuel, spark and it would fire.. but run so shitty i wouldnt wanna keep it running. thought it was timing but it was all good. come to find out the plenum gasket slipped out when i was installing and actuall caused a shit ton of problems..now its all figured out and runs solid as shit with 183-195 compresssion on all pistons...bought the bitch for 500
