Default TB volt

From i remember.. dont know about closed but after 5.7v "i think" it throws a code. Are you doing the TB bumb stop mod? If so, be good to stop at 5.6 or so. If the V-meter is not accurate well.. you know "SES"

i belive the voltages are ( closed = .5 to .6 volts, and WOT 4.6 volts )
the 4.6 volts is after the bump stop mod,i think that is a 90* angle
and above 4.6 could cause the ses light to come on
hope that helps
