Hi all.
I checked my TPS voltage last night with a multimeter. KOEO, and it was sitting at 1.24v. I followed the instructions i read in another post, and enlarged the holes in the tps to make them elongated. I took as much out of them as possible, with out breaking out the side of the TPS with a dremel, but I can still only get the voltage down to 1.04-1.06V. I checked my base idle after the car was warmed up and the ISC disconnected and set it to around 580-600rpm. Any reason why I can't get this down to 0.9v? Regards James

You really have to play with getting the holes right. I had to slot my holes so they looked more like an oval than a circle. This way i was able to get .99v on mine.

I've taken as much out as I can, anymore and the dremel will bust those ovals out

neither. the voltage simply wasn't correct when i checked it. was 1.24, but even now at the limits of the plastic i can only get it down to 1.04v.

I measured my brothers TPS on his AU 2 XR8 220kw and his was 1.2v. Havent bothered to change it yet tho. His hasnt been modified so i guess its been like that from factory.
The easiest way i found to do mine, was leave one screw semi tight and then twist it and tighten the other one. |
