It's me again. I just replaced my coil, TFI and TPS. Twice today when I started my car the throttle revs upto 2K and then down to a little under 1K. Has anybody encountered this issue? Can the TPS be adjusted and if so how?

It sounds to me your tps sensor needs adjustment I believe its supposed to be set to like 1 volt max and u have to lossen the two scews to where it barley moves and tweak it (turn it) till its to the wright voltage and u should hear it idle down. now they sell the calibrator tool but u can use voltmeter i forgot what wires to tap into thou but some 1 on here should know how [patriot]
