so i barely ever drive my car these days, but i've been trying to use it recently. it started idleing at 1200 rpm and then i realized if i was cruising and pushed in the clutch the rpms would not drop. they would stay where they were at like 2100 rpms. when i got home i unplugged the tps and re-plugged it as well as opened the throttle all the way a few times. i took it out and it idles normal at 800 rpms and if i push in the clutch it goes right down to 800 rpms when cruising. Whats up with that? could un plugging it really "fix" the problem? i think i may get a spare tps just in case. my first thought was that it was a tuning issue bit i dont think so anymore. btw the car has a procharger on it.
