THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR ADJUSTMENT

1. INSPECT THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
(a) Apply vacuum to the throttle opener.

Ohmmeter Connection:

Reference:

(b) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between each terminal.
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR





(a) Loosen the 2 set screws of the sensor.
(b) Apply vacuum to the throttle opener.
(c) Insert a 0.60 mm (0.024 in.) thickness gauge between the throttle stop screw and stop lever.





(d) Connect the test probe of an ohmmeter to the terminals IDL and E2 of the sensor.
(e) Gradually turn the sensor clockwise until the ohm meter deflects, and secure it with the 2 set screws.
