Throttle Position Sensor: Adjustments
(1) Connect the scan tool to the data link connector. When not using the scan tool, proceed as follows.
(1) Disconnect the connector of the throttle position sensor.
(2) Connect an ohmmeter between terminal 2 (closed throttle position switch) and 1 (sensor ground) by using jumper wires.
(2) Insert a feeler gage with a thickness of 0.65 mm (.0256 in.) between the fixed SAS and throttle lever.
(3) When using the scan tool, turn the ignition switch ON. (but do not start the engine.)
(4) Loosen the throttle position sensor mounting bolts and turn the throttle position sensor body fully clockwise.
(5) In this condition, make sure that the closed throttle position switch is ON. (There is continuity between terminals 1 and 2.)
(6) Slowly turn the throttle position sensor clockwise until the point at which the idle switch is turned off (continuity between terminals 1 and 2
changes to non-continuity) is found.
Tighten the throttle position sensor installation bolt at that position.
