I got my new TPS sensor put on, I followed the instruction to set it correctly. The highest output voltage I could get from it was 1.33. Whats the deal here? Any ideas?


Thanks

Sounds like you've got the TPS's linkage arm on the wrong side of the throttle shaft's linkage! (it's been done a few times before) ...

Inspect your installation, then doublecheck the voltage available to the TPS (both connectors if you're running an auto tranny) ...

Post what you find (could aslo be a bad ground)

I just changed out my TPS also. So. Do you check the voltage at both connectors then? Are they the same input and output but going to two places? I only did a check on the square connector. The oval one I didn't do. I don't recall the Chiltons specifying which one or even both.

Anyone ever mess with that screw adjustment on the throttle plate? Sure shut my idle problem down. Its at a nice 750 now. Nice.

I take it ya got it fixed? Renix or HO engine?

Yeah, people adjust that dang idle speed set screw to mask problems & then 'that' causes more problems later. If ya didn't get the voltages right here are two links that may help (Renix motors):
