I still have to snap some photos of the stb.
did anyone get before and afters of their TB's? both the cleanings and the optimizations?

Actually J, the TPS is "spring loaded" so that it needs to be wound back to orient with the end of the input blade (at least on mine). I've read of many people having the same CEL, so hopefully that helped some folks out:) Ed.....You're welcome....ingrate....LOL And I would be completely remiss if I did not thank Kimmy's "man" for the assist with the foglight mod...those Focus rims look sweet. Didn't someone get a pic of that meathead with the 225's on his SVT....can you believe that guy??? Bending the freakin' control arm for christ sake to fit on the tires!!!

well, we found out that tanners TPS is broken. it must have been put on wrong and when he goosed it the spring broke, so he calling right now to find one. as for the dude with the 225's, he didnt bend the control arm to fit the tire. the place that put the tires on bent it. and the way it was bent actually brought it closer to the tire.

Yes, but did you guys feel the need to bend your control arms to make them fit???  Elky, did ya try the "fix" I posted in the troubleshooting section for the TPS problem??? Give that a shot first.....
