So my obd1 gasoline engine skills aren't what they could be compared to other vehicles. As far as I'm concerned obd1 is a pain in the ass.

But anyways I'll keep digging on this issue and see what happens and report back. But just to clarify, what your saying is; the readings the TPS showed on the scan tool CAN NOT be from a faulty TPS correct? It's either an ECM or scan tool problem. That's how I interpret what your above post says.
I don't guarantee anything that doesn't happen on MY scan tool.

I do not understand how the same data stream that shows change on TPS voltage with application of throttle, does not show change on TPS percentage. To me, that has to be a scan-tool problem.

But then, 5.8 volts at idle for TPS voltage is crazy, too. It should be less than one volt unless GM changed their system.

That's why I suggest re-checking with another scan tool, or verifying that your scan tool shows proper readings on a different vehicle.
