The correct name if I am seeing clearly are "potentiometers" aka "pots" they are variable resistors. Before you can buy new ones you would need to identify the current resistance of the existing ones. They will likely be 10 or 100 k ohms. In order to find out. Place an ohm meter on the two outside pins and read what it says.

Hi David,

Leo Bodnar sells fantastic Pots . I used them in my throttle, still working great after many years.
