    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (4AGE - 86 @ Feb 12 2008, 05:56 PM) </div>It wont die when you rev. Ive driven my car without tps for testing purposes and my mate has not run his tps since it failed about 6months ago. Without tps it wont go into idle loop.

    These were both bigport ge's and my gze running an ae101 ecu/loom works fine without tps.

    yeh i was pulling my hair out for a few weeks wondering why my 4age was running like shit after i put the head back on after it had some work. found that same article, set of feeler gauges and multimeter and had the thing running sweet in half an hour. so if ur kanga hopping cruising slowly or when u get on or off the throttle then check to see if tps is positioned correctly

    can someone explain what you have done once you finish the test? how do you work out how much to adjust it by? and which direction?

    The explanation is.....download the manual from the tech docs and do what it says.

    I think Toyota know how to do it.

    oh, and i disconnected my tps today just to see how it runs....

    it runs, but idles at 2k and when you press the throttle it dies for a moment and then revs up again. not really ideal if you ask me...

    When you come into tech articles, look at the pinned items at the top of the page. Click on

    'Find your body manuals and wiring diagrams here'

    Scroll down the thread a little way and you will find the diagnosis manual, electrical wiring diagram books etc that I have scanned and had posted on aeu86.org The diagnosismanual is invaluable and includes a very nice simplified engine wiring diagram as well as how to adjust and diagnosis TCCS faults

    I would just post the link, but hopefully this will help other people in future find it themselves. I'm not having a go at you! I never look at the pinned items either.

    I thought that was it, but i didn't want to download it on dialup and then discover that it was the wrong thing!

    Cheers mate.
