TPS voltage readings
TPS voltage readings
OK 1st a little back ground on the problem.
The car was flooded pretty bad and I got it started back-up let it warm to operating temps then took it for a spin, at WOT the car would back fire and buck violently at around 3500 rpm. When smooth on the accelerator the problem was not present.
I did hours of searching and found some pretty helpful threads, I figured it was a fouled plug so I changed the plugs and still have the same problem, I checked all the vacuum lines and ground connections everything seems to be ok , after some advice from a knowledgeable forum member I checked the TPS voltage.
my readings are as follows
0.56 - 4.55 on the 3F ECU wire
0.2 - 1.20 on the 3G ECU wire
Now I realize that's way off and not in the proper range. I tried to adjust it but could not get it any better. My question is could something else be causing this or is the TPS bad for sure.?
I don't want to start throwing a bunch of money changing parts and not solving the problem.
BTW the car was running fine just prior to being flooded.
