Now i was led to believe that 2wd tps were red and 4x4 were black and were listed as pf01 for 2wd and pf09 for 4x4, now i needed a 4x4 as my magenta saph is running L8 and had been run with a 4x4 tps with the two outer wires swaped, so i got a black tps sent down from Paul at NYRS and find it has pf01 stamped on it, i also have searched ebay to find a red one advertised as a pf09, wtf is going on, by the way this is in no way a dig at Paul as he genuinely thought the same as me and that they were colour identifyable.
Sorry to ramble on a bit

Hi Steve,

I run with a L8 and my pf09 is grey.

How is it running ?

Steve.

 

Red was fitted at the factory. Both PF01 and 9 were red back then.

ALL weber Aftermarket are black.

Examples:

i was led to believe that red is 2wd and black 4wd didnt think number matters......
anyhow my car is running 4x4 management with a 2wd engine and the tickover is too high (unless i unplug the iscv)i was told that i need a 4x4 tps to cure this......
p.s. sorry to hijack your post!!!!!

 

Mine is the same m8 a 4x4 tps will cure it.

Steve.

 

Anyone running a L8 and NOT changing teh TPS and the wiring is asking for trouble. The system will NEVER run properly with the wrong TPS.

 

Thanks Stu, so going by colour alone isnt the only way of id.

Steve.

 

in that case i need a 4x4tps!!!

 

Hi Steve, running low revs on cold tickover and high on warm.

Steve.

 

so when fitting is there as setup procedure i need to follow.

Steve.

 

You need to make sure that you follow the correct procedure for setup, else you will have all sorts of probs with your ICV

The base voltage needs to be less than 0.6 volts when at idle. MEasure with a voltmeter at the ecu plug end. I believe it is pins 30 an 17 to measure across, but dont quote me.

I have a sheet that tells you the Ford how to guide. PM me your email address and I will forward the manual to you

JJ

 

yes,make sure its not reading negative degree's,i had a right nitemare with this problem,

tps are exactly as stu says,ive a pf09 here if you get stuck.

 

JJ you av pm m8.

 

Thanks for the gesture m8 , Paul is going to get me one out in the post tomorrow.

Steve.

 

Sorry about that steve

As they say , you learn summat every day

Will post another asap

 

Thanks m8, it caught us both out that one.

Steve.

 

Steve...to set the TPS up is just put it on turn it and let it spring into its position and then tighten screws..thats how i always done it!!!

 

This is the way that the technical tuning manual tell you to do it, though in my experience, this doesnt always give you the correct result.

Best is to set up with a multimeter if possible, else the above is second best.

Moonstone Steve - Dont have a PM yet matey - need your email address!

JJ

 

JJ you av pm m8

Steve

 

JJ he has a SECS moniter...providing that says 100% at full throttle..its fine

 

far from fine pal.
Idle is more critical than WOT when adjusting.

 

....never had an issue yet

 

Aha! If he has a SECS ECU then this should help, but when my TPS was set incorrectly, the ICV didnt operate, and the idle was up at crazy rpm. Even so, the tps delivered 100% at the top (but was too high at the bottom)

JJ

 

JJ.......Thanks for the tech sheet will browse through when i get time

Steve.

 

Steve

New CORRECT item is on its way

 

NP Any queries, give me a PM

JJ

 

just put a tp09 on my motor...hey presto..instant tickover

 

whats one of them then?anything like a pf09?

 

theres me getting my bloody letters mixed up ........i meant to say ive just fitted a PF09.........

 

Colour is the last way to identify a part - always go by the part number.
