[QUOTE="TheFleshRocket, post: 4508553, member: 48535"] I pulled off the TPS, and sure enough, with the throttle closed, the sensor is pushed several degrees, which is what was resulting in it reading 19%. I had the two screws off completely and it does not look like there is any real room for adjustment by just turning the whole TPS unit--the screw holes are big enough for the screws with little free play. Is it possible to adjust the piece of plastic inside the TPS that moves? Or to adjust the little flap of metal on the throttle body that activates the TPS? I tried moving both of those with a little bit of force but they didn't move. I didn't try any harder for fear of breaking something. Anyone have any ideas? [/QUOTE]
