TPS Sensor
TPS Sensor I have a 99 camaro with typical bolt ons and a cam. On the street the car works fine 99.99% of the time. The two times I took it to the track on the launch the car will flag the tps sensor and then the car nose dives down. I have put three tps sensor's in, did the tps reset, check the volts, check the range of the tps, everything is always perfect. Every now and then, like 2 or 3 times in the last 2 months it will flag the tps when you start the car. The weirdest thing is how it will work on the street, but at the track it wont. I am open for any idea's.

Probably moving more air than is expected for the position the throttle is in. Only time I've had reduced power at startup is when I forgot to plug in the TPS, kind of suggests a wiring problem. My bet is on 1514 in Y bodies, don't know the related code for F bodies.

P0121... I think I have a short in the harness. I shook the wires yesterday when the scan tool was hooked up to see if the voltage would change but it never did. Since then the car has not messed up again.
