Throttle Position Sensor: Adjustments

Throttle Body And TPS:

- Remove throttle body, refer to COMPONENT REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR PROCEDURES.

Throttle Stop Screw:

- Check that there is no clearance between throttle stop screw and lever with throttle plate in the fully closed position.

TPS Screws:

- Loosen throttle position sensor set screws.






- Connect ohmmeter across throttle sensor terminals E2 and IDL.
- Insert a 0.0157 inch (0.40 mm) feeler gauge between throttle stop screw and lever.

TPS Adjustment:

- Slowly turn sensor clockwise until ohmmeter shows no continuity.
- Tighten sensor set screws.






- Check adjustment with the following feeler gauges and note ohm reading:

0.0157 inch (0.40 mm) - Continuity
0.0335 inch (0.85 mm) - No continuity

- If desired results cannot be achieved, readjust sensor. If readings still cannot be achieved, replace sensor.
