TPS adjustment
Posted: Fri Feb 03, 2006 8:05 am
A few months ago I was checking things out in my engine bay,I found a few almost loose connecters (tightend them) slipping vaccum hoses(slipped them on tighter), you get the picture, Then I got to the TPS
I noticed it was set not to click. At first I thought the PO had set it that way because the fuel pump was wired directly to the switch (I figured the fuel pump always being on interfered with the TPS form doing it's normal job) So I fixed the fuel pump to run how it's supposed to,through the double relays, And ....
Here's the delema guys(On your toes everyone ,Yes Barry please you too.
I adjusted the TPS according to the service manual and the engine runs rough surges and surges until it just konks out. when I purposly misadjust it, it runs perfectly smooth and powerful.
And yes the TPS itself is fine I have 4 of them to choose from.
