    Unhappy

    Hey guys,
    I've been trying solve my problem for while now with no luck
    I have replaced TPS,Coils&Igntion, Spark plugs, leads are good, fuel pump

    It would only rev to 4000 revs and just bounce there and miss throttle sometimes, when i unplug TPS the problem is gone but doesnt run the smoothest

    With fuel pump is it ok to have it hooked up to ignition ?

    when you un-plug the TPS, the engine will run in "safe" mode, so this doesnt mean its a prob with the TPS, just a problem...somewhere.

    Mabey its the crank angle sensor? It might be failing at higher RPM's?

    If you want a definition of a crank angle sensor, than here is a tech one.
    The crank angle sensor is a basic component of the ECCS It monitors engine speed and piston position, and sends signals to the ECU to control fuel injection, ignition timing and other functions. The crank angle sensor has a rotor plate and a wave-forming circuit. The rotor plate has 360 slits for 1 0 signal and 6 slits for 120 0 signal. Light Emitting Diodes (LED) and photo diodes are built in the wave-forming circuit.

    Cheers

    go through what you did step buy step..double check everything..does it miss at 4000rpm? or does it stop revving?
