If i bring my throttle body to someone who can calibrate my tps for my microtech will it work the same as bringing my whole car?

manny.. I got a polished throttle body and was kind of afraid to switch them out. I know it would need to be reset to zero. It kind of exlains how to do it in the manual w/ the handcontroller but I have the Dash unit. I am going to wait until Gaby comes back and do it then. Garret

why not just cal your tps yourself? dont know how?

the car should run decent without a tps just may not itle at 750

I drove around for a couple weeks with mine unplugged (by accident).

i need to calibrate it to unflood my car. its sending too much fuel so its flooding it over and over again. i even burnt out my started. im so frustrated. but i love my sexy red lady always and forever. you guys know all about the love/hate feeling.

its soooooooooo easy to calibrate the TPS
read the manuel

manny34711

dude how. i dont have the manual. i borrowed it remember

MARTIN

go to the tpscal screen and move it up and down till you see a lil asterist next to the #. Either that or till you get the yellow light steady on while the car is off but on the "on" position..

manny34711

i dont get it. i got it to the * sign but i had to mess with the tps sensor when it was unscrewed from the throttle body. but when i let go of the switch and it turned back to its normal position it stayed at 0& but the * went away.....

MARTIN

you need to do it with the the tps on the car... and adjust it from there.... I know that in mine, there were like 3 settings that kept in with the *. Choose the one in the middle..

kabooski

the car needs to be warmed up before seting up the TPS

i cant start my car. it was so flooded. and because the tps was at 99% it was flooding it more i believe. so i pulled the plugs cleaned them up im goign to rotate the rotors with some transmission oil clean the plugs put them back in and fire the sucks up

kabooski

to de flood
cut off fuel
pull bottom plugs crack engine
with the accelerator floored

reinstall eveything
and give it a go

manny34711

yeah man i troed that for 3 days straight and it was a no go. i burnt out my starter in the process too. im trying again today with new starter. its been a bitch.

I calibrated my TPS Like the manual says, but for some reason at full throttle it only reads at 45% on the dash unit.
Anyone know whats going on?

MARTIN

you wired it wrong.... what tps are you using?? variable or on/off.

boostin_7

its a s4 tps

MARTIN

does it switch maps when you hit the acc?? if it does, then you have nothing to worry about... thats all its supposed to do...

boostin_7

I'm not sure, how can I tell on my dash unit if its switching maps?

MARTIN

im not sure about the dash.. but look for somewhere that says idle or load... if it says idle when you are idling then switches to load when you accelerate hard... then its doing its job.. not even acc hard.. till it reaches max throttle %
