Well first for the no start condition, I had been having a problem with it not starting when warm for about a month before this post. Then about 3 days ago, it wouldn't start in the morning before work, but after work I got in it and if fired up. That was the last time it started. I haven't been able to start it since.

I disconnected the battery for 15 minutes, and got KOEO codes: 81, 82, 85. (nothing new)

I turned it over for 10 seconds and pulled the plug. It was wet and smelled like gas except where spark was on the tip. On the base of the plug (right after the threads end) it was wet.

I disconnected the TPS and got 5.2V between the orange and black wires on the harness side.

I reconnected it and got 1V between the green and black wires and no throttle and 4.6V at WOT. I know the TPS should read under 1V, and I can't adjust it anymore, so I guess I'm gonna get a drill and widen the holes a little bit. Unfortunately I don't have a digital MM, so I'm gonna have to guestimate. On a 10 guage, it's still hard to tell the difference between .90 and .95.

These are your answers, I'm gonna try to get the TPS adjusted down to a little below 1. I'll post what results are.
