Default car threw code 7...tps..

okay after doing a manual swap to the car..also installed new ignition system...it threw code 7 which has to do with the tps sensor right..the car idles fine..but when i drive it regularly..the car sputters around 2000-3000 rpm..the problem would go off and on..also makes the car run very rich..sometimes it would do it and sometimes it won't...thinking about replacing it..or adjusting it..anybody here know how to..things i need...this is killing me...

make sure you haven't mixed up the TPS & MAP sensor plugs. They both use the same style round plug. Check to see if you mixed them up.

I have to agree with ind3ciso, Honda TPS's damage easily.
