Got spark, Got fuel, no start. *TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED Reply #30 – February 05, 2009, 05:08:33 PM But, a tps can be all wacked out , the engine will still run.It should through a code and drivability may suffer. Quote Selected

Had a '87 2.3 Stang with a off idle hesitation that drove me nuts... It had multiple problems when I got it and I'd fixed all the codes, but the hesitation remained... Finally after realizing it was fine on quick acceleration, I checked the TPS voltage using a buttstuffog meter... Found found it increased off idle, but decreased at about the point of normal acceleration, then started to climb again... Changing the TPS fixed it...That one did not set a code because the voltage was never out of the EEC's expected range... Quote Selected
Got spark, Got fuel, no start. *TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED Reply #32 – February 05, 2009, 08:07:47 PM the truck has always had a tps code. I tested it a few months back and it read normal with an buttstuffog meter. It must have all of a sudden ped.Anyway, just checking to see if anyone else was able to just let a tps dangle in the wind not bolted but plugged in and have no ill acceleration effects.

It will also leave big black marks near the exhaust and on the ground. Make a killer weed killer if you park by weeds and let it run. Quote Selected
