Default HELP First time sprayed and trouble

I sprayed for the first time last night wow what a blast bu I had the micro swittch set wrong at first and it back fired. Now i'm having idle problems. I think I may have wrecked the tps sensor. if unplugged it does the same thing if it is plugged in the car is throwing a ses light but when i scan it shows no code why is that? I have a full tank of 111 race gas in it now also could that be throwing the code? Does anyone know a vendor that would have a tps?

Check your plugs. Thats what I would look for first before anything else.

If they looked fine I wouldnt. I take it you are using tr6's ? I would start looking for intake leaks on the manifold.

A couple of questions?

1. Is that race gas leaded?
2. Did it backfire out of the intake?
3. Do you have a window switch?

I just took the IAC off the tb and it's all sutted up and it is sticking so I guess i'll try to find one of those. And I'm using tr55's I just went and picked up some tr6's.

1. Leaded gas can & will foul your 02's, that may be a problem.
2. If it backfired out of your intake, check your MAF wires, also check the manifold for cracks or if it messed up the stuff on the back of the intake, or knocked out your MAP sensor. A messed up MAF, or vacuum/intake leak will effect idle.
3. It could have also messed up your IAC.
There are a lot of things that need to be checked, also get a window switch.
