Default raene, or anyone else, please answer (or try to)

ok after i saw your list of engine codes i realised this whole time ive been misled

heres the deal,
i have a 91 si hatch w/a b16a and s1 tranny, I/H/E, and field vtec controller

the prob is the damn check engine light and code 7 (that i thought was TPS)
is TPS the same as throttle angle sensor??
i got a TPS from the junkyard and put it on, mine was broken (physically)
i can only get voltage up to 3.6VDC at WOT with dremmeled out holes
it runs fine and strong, just rich as bill gates.
any advise is appreciated
thanks

I don't really know much about the TPS, sorry Code 7 is the TPS, yes. I've never had a problem with mine.

If the car seems to be running good, then it's probably not a TPS problem. If the TPS is going I'd think that you'd feel a lot of surging/leaning out because it wouldn't read a steady voltage. Do you have a manual to check the acceptable voltage range?
