New sensor still throwing 121?? I've got the idle tuning with edit done as much to my abilities but still wanted 0 hesitation or stumble at idle. So instead of drilling I used the set-screw slightly . . . did the tps unplug and 0'd it out . . . but I'm still throwing a code.
It's a brand new sensor and the Jantzer is less than a year old . . . is the set-screw modification throwing the SES? Even after I uplugged the tps? When I swapped in a new one I kept the battery off for 5 minutes with no success.
It takes a few driving miles but the weird thing is I drove 200 miles on the highway without throwing the code whatsoever; once I drove 10 city miles SES
If I need to put the screw back to it's original position, how do I determine where that is? It wasn't like I was keeping an accurate measurement on how far I turned the screw
Could the TB be bad somehow?
This really sucks because, with the screw modified, I've got PERFECT IAC'S with no hunting, bumbling, or stumbling a/c on or off

Oooookay . . . I left the code alone this time since I'll be installing the FAST 90/90 next week . . . after less than 5 city miles the code went away
Don't know if it was the sensor or not at this point . . . and I won't really know if it's my TB because it comes out next week
If anyone had a similar experience or, even better, knows the problem and it's subsequent fix, assuming mine isn't fixed, please feel free to chime in

Thank you for replying

I was just curious because, in the stock settings, the max is 10 lower than the min I'll upload your figures right now
