Question unflood procedure threw off my idle (tps?)
i went to paris for 8 days and I get back and car is flooded to all hell. After pulling fuses for an hour and back and forth the lady finally started for me, then to find out i forgot to plug the wire to the rear trailing spark plug. Then i plugged it in and found out it was the wrong wire and that i had them switched. Now for some reason it doesnt idle too well and bounces from 400-1000 when sitting at the light. Is it possible that the procedure threw off my tps? Any suggestions? thanx

No, it shouldn't disturb the tps. It's only a resistor moved by the throttle cam. Sure you have the plug wires on correctly?
