If the tps has been removed or the spring is messed up inside of it ,then you may have to replace the tps. I've had em brought in all out of whack and have been able to readjust. Only one or two I gave up on and ordered new throttle bodies! OPT


I agree with you on that. I just find it funny that the manual states to replace the throttle body if the stop screw is adjusted, then the next page it tells you how to adjust it. Humorous to me anyway. Thats why i posted the info on how to adjust it, so he doesn't think it needs scrapped and spend a bunch more money.
