My voltage of TPS is 0.985V +/- 0.003V, and my WOT=5V aprox., when the engine is cold or warm voltages change, this is normal??

He likely posted how to do the RICER mod of adjusting the TPS, and then did a search. Then, he realized that he was asking about a stupid ricer mod that totally clueless people had been telling him about.

Just my guess.

For the record, I adjust my TPS to 0.999999999999999999999v. After doing that,
#5)I've been on the same talk of gas for OVER 40 YEARS!
#4) I've won EVERY quarter mile race EVER RUN!
#3) The engine idles to smoothly, it's impossible to tell when it's running or not.
#2) My engine has so much HP, it has blown up EVERY Dyno that it has ever been put on!

And, since adjusting my TPS...
#1) Pigs fly out of my *ss at the rate of 10 per minute!


The moral of the story?
Unless you want 1000 pound pigs coming from your *ss at a rate of 10/min for 24/7/365 , LEAVE YOUR TPS ALONE!!

Where did this adjusting TPS stuff come from?

I never felt any kind of difference from adjustment, now I just leave it alone.

Haha, that's good stuff. More of a rant, but it is good information. I never messed with my TPS, even after the TB swap, and never had any problems. I guess TB manufacturers cover their ass by instructing buyers to check their voltage after the install, in case their TPS or TB is out of whack.

I have my TPS voltage set at 0.99v throttle closed and 4.63v wide open on my Summit Racing 75mm TB with TPS adjustment.
