2 - MOUNTING SCREWS

(4) Remove TPS from throttle body.

INSTALLATION

The throttle shaft end of the throttle body slides into a socket in the TPS (Fig. 22). The TPS must be installed so that it can be rotated a few degrees. If the sensor will not rotate, install the sensor with the throttle shaft on the other side of the socket tangs.

The TPS will be under slight tension when rotated.

(1) Install the TPS and two retaining bolts.

(2) Tighten bolts to 7 N*m (60 in. lbs.) torque.

(3) Manually operate the throttle control lever by hand to check for any binding of the TPS.
