Default Setting Tps Sensor

Couldn't find this infromation anywhere just wondering what reading should i be getting from my TPS at closed throttle and wide open throttle?
My car is stalling when i put it into gear. I though i had it adjusted right but but my AFR gauge is showing that it is peging out on the rich side.
I readjusted it and got the AFR down to where it is running stoch but then again it wants to surge.
What am i doing wrong?

the LT TPS is non adjustable. you can only check it and if its wrong replace it.

Thats not true. It's self zeroing and not adjustable by the factory but 100% adjustable by sloting the bolt holes. In fact it's ectremely common to do especialy after the install of an aftermarket TB because they are almost always slighty off

ah ok. yeah i imagine anything can be modded from the factory stand point. i personally have not had a reason to slot it. of course any aftermarket TBs i have used have only been TPiS 52mm which is a bored out stocker. thanks for the tip
