Default TPS problem.

Question for ya. Sometimes at light and it turns green I slowly depress the gas pedal and it goes no where. Feels like it wants to die, I must press the clutch pedal in and rev up to clear it out. I had a scanner on it and the TPS readings would read with the gas pedal halfway to fully depressed to the floor. Could I have a faulty TPS sensor oh could it be in my tune? If u stand behind the car the fumes from the car will burn your eyes, so I know it is rich. Thanks for the help to any that offer.

You left out what it was reading.

If it is reading zero, you have an issue with theTPS sensor or way too much slack in the cable. If it is reading normal, then leaning out the car may help if it is running pig rich.

Yeah it would stay at 0% for a few seconds then jump up to were it is suppose to be reading.
