TPS Adjustment (Sidekick TBI)

  1. Disconnect TPS harness connector and throttle opener vacuum hose. Using hand vacuum pump, apply 19 in. Hg vacuum to throttle opener to move throttle lever to idle position. Counting number of turns, loosen idle speed adjusting screw until clearance is obtained between throttle lever and adjusting screw. Record number of turns. Connect ohmmeter between terminals "C" and "D". See Figure .
  2. Insert .016" (.40 mm) thickness gauge between idle speed adjusting screw and throttle lever. Loosen TPS mounting screws. Turn TPS fully clockwise. Slowly rotate TPS counterclockwise to locate position where ohmmeter readings changes from infinity to zero ohms. Holding TPS at this position, tighten mounting screws to 30 INCH lbs. (3.4 N.m.). Repeat TPS INSPECTION (SIDEKICK TBI) to verify correct adjustment and operation.
  3. After verifying adjustment, reconnect TPS harness connector and throttle opener vacuum hose. Turn idle speed adjusting screw inward number of turns previously recorded. If necessary, readjust idle speed. See IDLE SPEED  .
CAUTION: DO NOT  adjust Swift DOHC throttle stop screw to adjust idle. Throttle stop screw is factory-set, and is used as zero reference point for all other adjustments.
