Default adjusting tps problems

ok, this isnt really a problem i dont think, i just want to know what any of you might think about this "observation" ive noticed.

i went out and bought a new tps. that was what my check engine light was, so i figured it would be good to fix it. hopefully it will take care of my idle.

i hooked the brand new one up to an ohmmeter to see what the reading would be, and i noticed that the reading stops at 4.8 ohms, but the spin thing in the tps still turns a little bit. to illustrate, ive created a gif that shows what i mean...



near the end of the spin, the meter stops at 4.8 but the tps can still spin a bit, about 1/4" more spin. is this fine and normal, or is this tps bad? this is the brand new one im talking about here.
