88 XJ 4.0 AW4.
The other day my CPS finally gave up the ghost. Changed it out and i noticed a couple of problems. After driving it a couple of days. First, it is intermitently very doggy,lacks power. I am having to shift down to be abel to get to speed when going up a small incline. Second, it seems to accelerate especially well once you hit about 2700 RPM. THe lack of power was so bad the other day I thoght that maybe it needed teh computer reset with the new CPS. Pulled the battery cable. WHen I ran it again, it ran fine. Now it is acting up again.
My immediate thought was, check the TPS? Maybe it needs adjustment. What do you think? The TPS only has about 1.5 years on it and 15,000 miles. IT seems like it might be the culprit. THe fact that it went away when I reset teh computer would seem to point to electrical. However, the very noticeable boost in power once I get up to about 2700 rpm is unusual. At any rate, it is butt cold here, I ahve no garage, and I want to see all the options before I decide to work on it.
Thanks
