Not standard TPS question.

92Rustang · 11-23-2001, 11:44 PM

I have been having some driveablity problems with my stang after the motor upgrades. I was testing the TPS and could not get it down to .98. My problem is to get the car to idle at about 850 the lowest I can get the voltage to is 1.15. I tried my old TPS and had the same problem. My question is is this a problem and how do I fix it? The car will idle about 700 ,but stalls when coming to a stop.

I have heard of people slotting the screw holes to get more adjustment on their T.P.S to get a decent reading. Have you tried that yet?
