The speed sensor in my 88 beretta base is bad, and I have no real idea on where to get a new one. Would I be able to just go down to the dealership and have them order one for me? Since im going to be going there anyways to get the speed density update I might as well kill 2 birds with 1 stone if I can. I tried getting one from Advance Auto, but the one they sold me was for a car with an automatic transmission, and I have a 5spd. I"ve looked all over the net and can't seem to find anywhere that has a speed sensor for sale for a 5spd 2.8l 88 beretta. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I currently can't tell how fast im going when im driving.

Heheh, I feel for ya man.  I went through this myself a few months ago, except I needed a new VSS for an entirely different reason.  (Mine wasn't just non-functional, it was causing electrical havoc)...  Anyways, I found a good Borg Warner VSS for the 5-speed at O'Reilly's Auto Parts.  They can also get it at AutoZone.  If you need the part #, let me know.  I still have the box the new VSS came in.  I have an '88 GT with manual trans. Wow, what a b*tch that was to get out. The O-ring gets stuck in the trans after awhile. As far as the speed density software update-- why do you want it?  When I went to the dealership many years ago, they charged me an arm and a leg, and with the density software update, I actually noticed a DECREASE in horsepower.

Napa, part number VSS 217 it's about 77.00 but thats the one you need for the manual transmission.

ok, thanks for the info.
as for the speed density update I want it so I can use a cold air intake from tranzgenic. Have to get the update in order to remove the MAF and replace it with an IAT sensor I think...somethin like that.
