Default TPS sensor

Should it be mounted so its striaght on the throttle body housing or at a slight angle?! notices you can angle it slightly which would open the butterfly slightly.

It needs to be set with a multimeter ideally.

don't use the tps to open the throttle butterfly! you will put too much force on to it working against the throttle closing spring and will damage it.
