is the TPS on 94 95 adjustable???

no, it is not adjustable on the 94-95 5.0L.

this has been covered many times here.

i shoulda read before i posted, thanks

You can drill the holes out alittle bigger and make it adjustable.

That won't do anything. The PCM takes a baseline TPS reading when the key is turned on. That baseline reading becomes the closed throttle refrence. Doesn't matter if its .90 or 1.15V.

cured my idle and hanging idle the same ways...........

Not sure i totally agree with that???

Mines was suffering from a hanging idle....when the base setting was checked I was 1.2 volts.. i was having a hanging idle at start and between shifts....re-set it to .098...hanging idle was gone....

It may take a reading every start...but the position does matter....

Do a search guys. This topic has been covered many many times both here and on the Corral. Resetting the TPS position is a waste of time on the 94/95 cars and could potentially cause it's own problems.

Read the following links for examples;

From the Corral thread that I posted above, pay close attention to what MFE and Stangplus2birds have to say. They are both EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the 94/95 PCM and how to tune it properly.

Yes RIO, the Fox style is adjustable.

Mines the Fox set-up....maybe it differs from the SN95....

And that my friends, is how myths, rumours, urban legends and falsehoods start.

Just so everyone is clear. The 94/95 car's have many differences from earlier Fox car's. You can't assume that just because something worked on a Fox car, the procedure is going to be identical for a 94/95 car. I highly suggest you do a search both here and on The Corral before you try somthing new with your 94/95 stang.

I'm going to repeat myself.....trying to set the TPS at a specific voltage for the 94/95 cars is a waste of time.

Good Day

The fox style TPS has a different kind of connector, but otherwise works the same. It is the EEC that does the baselining, it has nothing to do with the sensor itself. Read thread #1 that was referenced above -- with my Accufab fox-style throttle body setup, I run 0.85v at closed throttle and the EEC correctly detects part throttle at 0.89v. On a Fox setup, the EEC does not baseline, instead it uses 1.00v as the part throttle breakpoint. So I can already prove ours works different.

Now go to sleep, isn't it past your bedtime yet?
