problem, how to fix? TPS and throttle assembly
hey guys whats up i think i found my problem, at idle, on my SAFC my throtle read 43% when i was completely off the gas. well at first i thought it was the TPS it was reading 2.1 ohms at idle, well when i turned the screw to release the pressure, nothing changed so i thought it was my TPS
but if ur lookiing at the screw, there is a spring behing it so when u loosen the screw the two plates separate. well i loosened the screw but the plates didn't separate, i tried jamming a flat head screw driver in there but that didn't work.
oh and i also loostened the main nut.
should i try some carb cleaner and some WD 40?

remove the TPS and actuate it by hand, does the OHM readings change?
If you screw in on the screw, does the arm move?
You may have a bad TPS, and maxed out the adjustment range.
