    How To Check Tps Voltage

    Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought the tps went by resistance? I've set mine many times with the throtle body off the car. Its much easier to get to on the 94-95s that way.I've always had to remove the IAC valve to get at the screws on the switch. Never had a problem doing it that way. Am I wrong?

    Yes, the exhaust side is open, however where the valve attaches to the intake I have a 1/16 inch thick piece of aluminum as a block off so there is no actual open area, the intake is still sealed. I can send you a picture of it tonight if you would like.

    I removed my egr this past winter when reassembling my motor. I simply left the valve pluged in and kept the vacime line attached. I cut an aluminum spacer to act as a block off plate betwwen the valve and the intake.My headers were of a fox body so they did not have the egr pipe coming off...
