TPS adjustment question?
I have a b18b1 that has a throttle position sensor from a d15 because the original was broken. I recently installed a tach and found that my rev limitor is kicking in at 6500 rpm. The tps also has a bit of damage to it but i want to adjust it and see if it works.Could somebody please tell me how to adjust it.

Using a multimeter measure the yellow/blue(+) wire and the green/blue(-) wire at idle. It should read 0.5 Volt and at full throttle: 5 volts. BTW there should be a smooth transition as the throttle is depressed.
If it is not at 0.5 volts at idle or 5 volts at full throttle, slightly adjust(move/wiggle) the TPS until it reaches 0.5 v or 5 v. Once it reaches the factory specs 0.5 volts at idle tighten the bolts holding the TPS. And also clear your codes when you are done which is common sense anyways.
