Well it will not catch an idle but if I hold my foot on the gas pedal it will run fine and I can get it to catch an idle sometimes. Already checked the voltage on the IAB as well as the resistance it is fine, TPS gives me some weird readings so it may be that but doesn't make sense that it runs fine except at idle.

I did a resistance test on the TPS and with it closed I get 750 ohms, fully open 3.68ohms but when I open it slowly it shoots all over the place anywhere from 1000-2400ohms, do you think that is the issue? It wasn't pulling any codes but now I do get a solid check engine light?

Can anyone help me out on this? Thanks guys...

Chris "PKRWD" I sent you a e-mail...this is after that.
