I've posted this on here a few times, and no one seems to have any idea. I thought since I havn't been on here in a while, I'd give it another go.
For over a year now, my car has had basicly the "Throttle Hang of Doom". Where most cars rev-down slowly, mine just doesn't rev down; at all.
Here is what it does. If you are not moving (at all) the car idles normally. The second you start moving the revs start going to 3,000 or higher. They will NOT go down until you stop. Every time I shift the revs fly up. Fun thing is some times it will do this, other times it will not. Some times it will fix itself, and then start doing this again just from gear to gear.
Car throws a P1120 for out of range TPS. Guess what? TPS is fine. It's been tested, and then changed just for fun. No help. IAC is good, MAF is good, wiring to the TPS tested out good, TPS base voltage is set correctly to .9 volts. Cruise control was disconnected, all no change.
Here is where it goes wierd. Lately it's gotten MUCH worse. Now the car can no longer hold idle right. It's starting to idle at 1500 rpm. It's also started bogging at low rpm after downshifting (or even sometimes bucking).
Heres some more. Using a scanner, it showed 13% TPS at idle. After driving it for a few minutes, it went to 17%, and the idle was higher. At full throttle the TPS only showed at highest 80%. At 17% TPS, idle was at roughly 1100 rpm.
Taking a piece of wood, I pressed on the throttle lever that the cables go onto. Slight pressure resulted in the idle dropping to 700RPM.
So, what is everyones take on this? I've had two garages take a look at this. I work at one of them. Hell, I've even had two Ford master techs take a look; neither of them have any idea either.
