Default 2WD TPS Adjustment

Hi All,

I recently set my base idle as the idle was a bit erratic, the idle is now fine without ISVC plugged in, when I reconnect the idle goes a little higher than the base setting. Can anyone explain how to adjust the TPS?

Take off throttle housing, take out screws on tps, pull off housing by a few mm's, allow it to rest in position, tighten down without allowing to rotate, this will be plenty good enough.

Thanks for your replies guys, I seem to remember something back in the mists of time about checking the voltage of the tps whilst adjusting? Does this ring any bells with anyone? Car is on the rollers saturday morning! Thanks again.

CheeRS, Mike.
