adjusting the tps
 

Ok i went to adjust my TPS to get it at .45 at closed throttle but the lowest i can get the voltage down to is .73. The tps is turned all the way that direction and won't go any farther. If anyone has any suggestions lmk. I don't know if the spring in the sensor is bad or what. Oh yeah if it helps its b18c1 with a SKunk2 TB.

What is making you adjust the TPS to begin with? (not trying to be an ass)

What is the max voltage you can get out of it?

i put on a skunk2 TB

at closed throttle the max voltage will go well over 1V

Ideally, you should have about 0.45V @ closed throttle and 4.5V @ WOT. Mine adjusted down fine. Are you sure you're taking the voltage on the correct wires?

This is what im wondering, it just does not seem right

Yeah it doesn't seem right, thats why i was seeing if anyone have any suggestions, the problem is i can't get the voltage down to .45 the tps is turned to the max and will only get to .73. I am testing the middle wire which i am almost positive is the right one.

the right wirer is the red/blue wire, yes it is in teh middle

supposed to be 5.v closed and 4.5 open.

Since everything is unplugged is there any chance you might made a mistake on the connections between the TPS and MAP? The reading seems to be like from a typical MAP sensor connector instead of the TPS.

Some TPS needs to remove the metallic ring on the screw holes, so you can move the TPS a little more.
