FIRST OFF TAKE YOUR DAMN CAPS LOCK OFF. There is no need to yell.

TPS setting? never heard of that, I think there is a TPS sensor/plug and whatnot but i don't think its adjustable. If it is, then disregard

I really just wanted to tell you to stop yelling.

You can adjust the idle with the screw (if that's what you're talking about)

It is adjustable. The voltage may be off. I don't have a manual handy though. I'm wanting to say the voltage is 4.5v at wot? Better get a book though unless someone else here knows it off the top of their heads. You'll have to probe the middle wire. The voltage should change when you have the key on, playing with the tb butterfly.

yup, 4.5 at WOT. Not sure on which wires off the top of my head. Check the gasket on the TB.

you can do it with the tb off the car
just open the butterfly all the way... and put the mulitmeter on the pins on the tps sensor...
to see what voltage you are seeing

i thought it was 5 v at WOT, but it's been a while so i'd go with what speedracer exr said.
