I was reading in the faq that to set the timing I need to make that ghetto rigged light well I made it and when i poped my hood and I looked at the thing I use to accelerate the car There is no screw. I see the TPS but there is no screw or spring or anything. WTF is going on

OK, the trottle assembly that the TPS pushes against? With the spring and such? Right in front there is a vertical screw with a spring, the head is COVERED BY A WHITE PLASTIC CAP. Pry the cap off, there is your TPS screw (flathead screw).

But there is a TPS plunger? Does it push against anything?

That enginebay is SEXY.

I'd take a pic of mine, but it's all grease, and won't reflect the flash, so it'll just be black. It's like a freaking black hole in there.

the best advice i can give you 13b for ur azz, is to p.m. 1revvin7 and get him to tell you on a 1on1 basis what is goin on cause he really knows his ****. Hopefully you live near him so he can show you. If not then he will prolly show you whats up over this site. Just listen to the moderators. They know their ****. Hopefully I helped!!

take a picture of your throttle body, if you've helped a friend with calibrating the TPS you must be familiar with what is supposed to be there. It is possible you are missing some parts, or maybe your car has been modified by a previous owner. Get a photograph up so we can try help you out.
