hey Setanta, how do you know if your sensor is on wrong? I had to put a new one on my ZC because it came broken. I put a new one on and it was throwing the TPS code. I adjusted it a little and now theres no code. Does this mean its seated correctly or could it still be wrong?

P.S. What does setanta mean? is it spanish?
Mine had the bolts removed and new ones screwed in. It also idled at 2500rpm hot (ouch) and when I fixed/replaced the cold idle valve the idle jumped up and down all over the place. Replacing the TPS solved it and it idles stock as a rock.

BTW - I know about the voltage settings - but you can never quite get it spot on - I tried along with a few others and got nowhere - almost, but not quite and the difference between trying to fix it and bolting on a new TB was 15bhp! Beats me why, but seeing as it cost me next to nothing, I'd suggest the replace option every day of the week

Setanta is Irish. It's the non-warrior name of Cuchulainn, an ancient legendary warrior from Ulster. I've used it online since I first logged on, mostly from a fascination with Celtic mythology that I developed at Uni.

Cheers
