TPS problems
Well to sum it up I haven't driven the pearlie in 2 months because of this. The voltage fully closed one way is 1.3 and open at 2.3. Now I suspected a bad tps so I switched it with one from my red car and got the same results.
  The way it drives is like it wont shift right because of the tps being so off and when you give it gas like WOOT it cuts all power and kicks in after a sec then revs to high rpms and takes forever to engage the gear, again i'm assuming because of the tps. Any help is appreciated cause I really would like to get this thing back in shape. Thanks.

Re: TPS problems
Didn't think of that, i'll try it out tomorrow after work. Also don't know if it matters but it has 4.44's and I swapped the motor recently. BUT it ran awsome after the swap then all of the sudden did this. I also did the bead crush to try and help the cut off and it did little to nothing.

Re: TPS problems
I edited my post, somehow I am thinking it is not that easy and figured someone smarter should answer.

Re: TPS problems
Looked in the FSM and it says if the tps is bad to replace the whole throttle body!!! But the sensor is good when i switched it to the red one. It just wont go into spec in the white one. Anymore thoughts?

Re: TPS problems
Ok tried some other tests and heres what I got....
TPS read 6 ohms wires 2-3 fully closed read 6.1 ohms Spec is 10-12 wires 2-3 fully open read 1.7 ohms Spec is 3-5 Also when sweeping it to open/closed the ohms spiked when I got to about4-5 ohms, it then jumped to between 10-25 then back down to 6.1 when it got fully closed. Just tested the wires to ground and got these Black wire= infinite white wire= .78 red wire= 3.18 The book says all should be minimum 1 ohms so i'm guessing the harness is bad? Luckilly I have an extra one laying around but want to confirm before I rip the intake off. Any thoughts?
