Talking hmmm, betcha can't figure this one out!

My idle has been borked for a long time now.

If I set my tps properly, it wont hold an idle and die.

If I turn the tps in, it will hold an idle a little over 1k, but obviously Iget bucking and the check engine light comes on because the tps isn't set right.

what would cause it not to idle with the tps adjusted correctly??

It has a hard time starting to which Is somewhat solved by a fuel switch, so I can assure you that my injectors are leaking.

Compression is good. I just wouldnt think leaky injectors would cause it not to hold an idle with tps adjusted correct..

thinks I have tried
----------------------------
bought NEW tps.....******* waste of money...was not the problem

replaced plugs, filter, checked afm, hoses, tid, vacuum is fine. Car runs frieking GREAT.....I just beat a s2000

alternator is fine, cleaned bac.

Maybe the injectors can cause this much ****??

any help would be great.

If the injectors are leaking they could be the cause.
Troubleshooting suggestion:
If you create a small vacuum leak does it idle better?
