With the key on but the engine off you measure voltage between the RED/WHT wire and body ground, with the throttle closed, bolts for the tps loose, rotate the sensor until it reads 0.5V with the throttle closed. Tighten the screws on the sensor and open the throttle all the way and at WOT it should read at 4.5V, if it's a few millivolts off don't worry. You're gonna need a digital multimeter and a back probe kit to probe the backside of the connector on the sensor.

Pull your plugs, take a pic of it and post it up.. Might no be getting to little fuel maybe to much. You should check the fuel pressure, timming, all that good stuff
