Default Adjusting TPS Problem. Please Help!

Well when I try to adjust the TPS at closed throttle it just stays at .88V and does not move no matter what direction the tps is rotated.
Then the TPS at WOT moves between 3.8V and 4.6V

When i get the TPS to 4.5 at wot it idles around 3.5

Any imput is appreciated.

are you sure you have the TPS in correctally?

you can not just bolt it on and adjust it.

you have to match the little arm that comes out of the circle (the peice on the TPS that turns) match that up with the little holder on the throttle bracket.

you then turn it like 1/4 turn to match up the bolt holes.


its possible thats what your doing wrong.
