How do you adjust the throttle positioning sensor?
« on: Mar 25, 2009, 12:26:00 PM »
I have this problem with my 85 22re motor.  I have changed spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, and fuel pump.  I have read couple of other similar topic and everyone sugggest to change and adjust the tps. I have read the hanes manual and to adjust the sensor is by inserting the feeler in between the lever and the stop screw (I don't get it).  I have the same problem like silver did and he adjusted his tps.  I also found that it had only one screw mounting it could that be the problem.  Please any info would greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I adjust it today and went bad after two hours of driving.  I think I have to replace it.
