do I need to adjust idle after TPS?
I have a slight hunting in the idle 800-1200 RPM at times and I get the jerkiness when accleration lightly in low gears so I'm going to try the TPS adjustment.
Should I attempt to adjust idle after or just see how it runs after TPS? Any tips on idle adjustment if necessary? Thanks

after adjusting the TPS. i didnt have to adjust the idle at all, it idles smooth at 750rpm.... u could actually adj. the idle with TPS adjustments... u should see 1k ohm at rest, go up anywhere up to 1.1k ohm...u can raise the idle slightly. and same thing with lowering it. i'm not sure if it's recommended, but it does the trick.... so go with 1k ohm at rest and see how she idles.. and if idle is still rough, check for vaccum leaks (loose line)... just my $0.02....
