TPS Questions

My TPS, I have it adjusted at idle at around .93k Ohm. The engine seems to like it there. if i adjust it to 1K ohm or below .90K
Ohm the engine runs rough.. Im guessing this means my TPS is just warn out?

Another TPS Questions. - At light throttle.. say your doing 30MPH and you are coasting with your foot lightly on the throttle.. if you get lighter on the throttle its almost like the gas pedal shuts off or sumtin. then if you press it more it gives you a lil kick in the seat when the gas enguages again or sumtin. its not a smooth coast.. Could this be the TPS?... Hopfully i didnt confuse anyone..

Are you suppose to adjust the TPS while its connect to the engine harness or when its disconnected? I have been adjusting it while its disconnected from teh engine harness.

all the stuff i have done to my car is listed here

Keep monitoring resistance and operate the throttle from sitting idle to WOT with your hand.&nbsp Check to make sure resistance moves SMOOTHLY from your target idle resistance to 6k-ohm max - if you see "breaks", the TPS is bad.
