could you do this?
.....
Disconnect throttle position sensor wire connector.
Using an analog ohmmeter and feeler gauge inserted between throttle lever and stop screw, take the following resistance measurements:
With throttle closed, measure between terminals VTA and E2. Resistance should be 200-800 ohms.
With throttle lever and stop clearance of 0.0197 inch (.50 mm), measure between IDL and E2. Resistance should be 0 ohms.
With throttle lever and stop clearance of 0.0354 inch (.90 mm), measure between IDL and E2. Resistance should be infinity.
With throttle valve fully opened, measure between VTA and E2. Resistance should be 3300-10,000 ohms.
With throttle valve in any position, measure between Vcc and E2. Resistance should be 3000-7000 ohms.
If switch fails to operate as specified, adjust switch as follows:
Loosen switch attaching screws, then insert a 0.0197 inch (.50 mm) feeler gauge between throttle lever and stop screw.
Connect ohmmeter between IDL and E2 terminals.
Rotate switch clockwise until ohmmeter deflects.
Tighten attaching screws, then repeat step 2.
If switch fails to perform as indicated, switch is defective.
