Today my brother brought a code reader with him when he came to my house and we hooked it up to my OBD2 port and got a funny reading from my TPS. Here's the deal, my TPS is not registering 100% when the pedal is on the floor. It reads 91% when the pedal is on the floor.
My brother is a big chevy guy and says on the LS6's he builds they get that sort of thing all the time. Basically they bend something to allow the throttle body to open fully, "problem sovled" he says.
But he also said it could be a calibration problem.
Has anyone else had a similar problem with their TPS and if so how'd you correct it? I'm worried this is stealing power from me when the pedal is on the floor.
Yes I know my brother should buy a Ford, but I can't give him any crap because the engines he builds for Daytona Prototypes are currently leading the points race. So I get asked how Fords are doing each time I try to hang crap on him for being a chevy guy. But every now and then I get a few good jabs in. Anyways, let's focus on my faulty TPS.
Thanks!
