Series 4 or 5? Turbo or NA? Always include this info with your posts, or at least put it in your profile.

Here is the illustration from the FSM.
There is a link to the complete manuals in my sig below.


Here is a pic of the TPS on the front of my S5 TB.
The adjusting screw is in the foreground.

I knew it!!! Thanks a lot guys, those pictures are great. How sensitive is this screw though? Like should i turn slowly or is there a lot of play before anything happens?

Figured I'd just tack on to this thread...

Anyone have the same pic but for an 87 TII?

And maybe a pic of the check connector you're supposed to connect LED's to when you adjust the TPS? I think the FSM shows it being near the oil filler line somewhere but a picture of exactly where would be terrific...

It's the only green 3-pin plug in the whole engine bay, and it's not plugged into anything. You can't miss it.

I found it to be fairly indifferent to you turning it, so crank away. Could also have something to do with mine being shot.
Also, that's a really clean engine bay. What do you use to clean it?
