lol yeah, i can see why he says it too. A motor is a pretty basic thing when you think about it.
It's just a big air pump with fuel injected into it then lit on fire.

if you have fuel and spark, then look into the timing of everything.

I do, usually because that's the easiest thing to F*** up, and for some reason the most overlooked.

Sounds like a weak ignition problem or a timing problem. As you increase load, the injectors spray more fuel but a weak ignition system cannot ignite the mixture or the timing is off and not igniting the mixture at the right time.

Look at distributor/coil, cap, rotor, wires, and plugs.
Check ignition timing with a timing light

Here is the TPS wiring. Verify that you are getting the proper voltage to the correct locations.
