Subject:is it possible to not have a TPS?

I have been having some issues with my '85 vanagon and someone
sudgested adjusting and checking the Throttle Possition Sensor. I
checked the bently and found that the TPS is infact different on an
'85....but i sware there is no TPS at all on my engine! I'll get some
pictures tommorow, but is it even remotely possible that the engine
would still work without one? I dont even have wiring for it. But, i
do have a vaccuum port at the front of the throttle body that has a 1
inch hose in it and a screw capping that off. I'm curious as to whats
really supposed to be there.
