I have a question. I tried this mod today (BTW, when you poke the wires with the safty pins, dont let them touch when the ignition is on, it fried mine) When I turn the TPS clockwise, the voltage decreses, am I doing something wrong?? When i took my base numbers, i got .89v at idle, and 4.79 at WOT. After I started playing around with it, like I said before, I found that moving it clockwise decresed the voltage. I drilled the brass fittings. I reinstalled it, but this time I tried moving it counter-clockwise, and tuned it into .94 volts as a starting point. I then tightened it down, double checked for .94 volts, but this time at WOT I got 5.4 volts, which was said to be way too high. I then turned it back to .89 at idle, then check WOT and still got 5.4v. I played around with it, but was unable to get WOT to come back down to 4.79 before I fired the TPS. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong??? Thanks... -Nick
What were you turning? The part that has the screws on it or the part inside the TB. If it's the latter then it's counterclockwise, the former, clockwise. I never checked my WOT voltage so all I can say here is flick the throttle cable a few times to ensure it returns back to normal.
On a side note, I had the voltage up to over .96 and felt the car wasn't quite right ... moved it back to .94X last night and I think I may move it back to the .92 - .935 range. So far, the .935 has felt the best for me.
