Default is it a tps????

hey whats up honda tech i have a question, my car idle fluctuates could my bad tps cause this, my motor is a 96 jdm gsr so it doesnt have the fitv and if it does i cant find it. i checked under the tb but its not there. my car is throwing the code 7. tps is on the way. but i would just like to know if that could cause fluctuating idle thanks

that could be caused by the TPS, you can check it to make sure it has .5V at idle (throttle closed) and 4.5V at wide open throttle

only when its operating temp, i also noticed that when i play around with the tps the idle surges and comes back to reg idle. and another thing that i noticed was that on the throttle body it has only one hole instead of two. unlike in the diy in how to clean your fitv and iac the tb has two holes. is that hole suppose to suck after the engine is at opperating temp? i believe that single hole leads to the iac but i could be wrong. but like i said i ordered the tps sensor and once i switch that out ill let you know the results. hopefully she will be all better after that. ps. its 96 jdm so could that be the reason for no fitv?
