throttle sensor - Narrow range?

My check engine light has been coming on when i have the throttle near the floor. I checked the code that was being put out and it gave me throttle sensor - narrow range, anyone know if this means i need a new tps? again... i already had one put in but it was used... any info on this and how to fix? or what causes it. 90 GTU.

thanks

it's all foobar, I have idle bounce when the car is cold, sometimes it dies, i'll try and adjust it, any links on how to do that? i know i have seen it before or done it before, isn't there a idle adjust screw that you tweak? at least that's what i remember.

i just got my second gen. i can tell you how to tune a first gen nikki carb though, lol. i'd say search the 2nd gen section as this is a typical topic but the search function has been down. otherwise check for similar threads and if there aren't any, create one. they are going to be able to help you far better then anyone seeing this here.
