1991 TPS Adjustment

Before anyone jumps down my throat, I've done all the searches but nothing comes up for setting the TPS on a 1991 with two (2) tps sensors, everything I find is for a single TPS.

Can someone please give me the right procedure with an ohm meter or with the two lights if this is pratical (also need discription of how to make light unit)

Thank you in advance for everyones help.

It's the same for all. You can only adjust one anyways.

I have a '91 N/A and here's my procedure....I hook the two lights up to the connector (green connector near the pressure sensor on the passenger's side)....engine fully warmed up, key on. Only one light should be lit. Adjust the TPS screw until one light is lit. Turn the key off and check the resistance using an OHM meter. For my car, it should be between 1000 and 1100 OHMs. Set the idle speed by first grounding the check connector (green, single connector on driver's side). Take it out for a 10 to 15 minute test drive. Come back in and go through the above proceudre again. Work's every time for me.

even though you can only adjust the short-range, it would still be good to test the full-range for defectiveness. right? so does anyone know which pins to test?
