Default tps issue during the damn heatwave...

today was hot as all hell; it seems when my engine has been running for 20 mins+, the tps voltage at light throttle jumps around....today was the first day this has done it, then again, i have not driven my car this long all summer lol
when i say light throttle, i mean less than 5-10%; it'll jump around and hit 0%, even tho im giving it gas, then jump up between there and 5-10%...really all over the place....but once over 10%+, it's fine...

12.3:1 NA SOHC

Could it be the heat? i drove it home from the gym tonight and it was fine. 15 minute trip, but its considerably cooler than it was at high noon....

i am going to swap one out for another to see what haps.

can you see your TPS voltage jumping around? what kind of throttle position does it do it at?
