Default Common cars with the 90-93 TPS

I am running down to the local U-Pull-It today to try and find a spare TPS for my Wells 201 install for the megasquirt.

I have a feeling some other commonly found cars came with the 90-93's TPS sensor (switch type). Can anyone help me out here?

Which one did you go to? Taylor Auto Salvage or the one in Detroit?

I went to a bigger yard in Detroit and found a whole crapload of them. Pulled one off of a Escort GT.

Also for you guys who might want spares, the Ford Festiva (the tiny car) has almost the same set of sensors as the 1.6. The AFM, TPS, and I think even the CAS (although not sure about this) is the exact same one as the Miata.
