I have a 2008 Chevy Impala SS with a 5.3L V8. I am trying to find the location of the throttle position sensor, but have had not luck. Can you tell me where it is located on this engine application?

My thought is that it is located inside the air cleaner assembly. Is this correct?

Well on newer GM cars and trucks, the TPS is called a pedal position sensor which is part of the gas pedal in the passenger compartment.

SOURCE: on a 2006 chevy impala it tells you to tighten the gas cap

There is no sensor for a loose gas cap. What is happening is that the evaporative emission system is sensing a "Large Leak". Usually code p0455. The computer sees this as the most probable cause is a loose gas cap depending on several factors it looks at. You would need to clear the code(s) and see if that was the problem. If the light comes back on, then you have a problem in the system that will not let it seal. Possible solenoid problem, leaking hose / line, etc.

I have a 2008 Chevy avalanche V8 automatic trouble code p 0 1 2 1 throttle position sensor circuit a faulty reading where's the sensor located and how do I check it

The sensor is on the throttle body. First check the plug connection to make sure it is tight. Hook up a scanner and see what the information the ECM is receiving. You may just need to do a throttle body cleaning to fix the problem.
