You got a new TPS...but did you set it correctly?

Also, HCI is a pretty generic term. What exactly do you have?

to set your tps correctly, follow this procedure: tps setup

it's not just a plug and play deal. hope this helps.

Coo thanxs guys I'm gonna try the tps thing tom and the map sensor. But I did figure out that it idles fine at first start of the day or after sitting for awhile and while driving stop and go. but say like I stop at the store or sumthing and shut off and then restart after about 5-10min it starts to surge until its driven for a min then surging stops
