Default b16 edelbrock throttlebody throwing tps. please help

I just installed skunk2 pro series manifold and edelbrock 65 mm throttle body on 89 crx dx w/b16. The manifold and throttle body had been used for about 2-3 weeks before I purchased them. After installing last night it threw a tps code. any suggestions why? They both look almost new so I dont think its a bad sensor and the person I purchased from so they had no problems(close friend). I also reset the ecu but it threw the could almost immediately after test drive. Please help

Its probably not set right for your car. Check on how to calibrate it.

I may be way off on this, but what happens if there is an air bubble in the coolant hook up at the bottom? I heard you had to bleed out the air.
