Sorry dont know what a (tps) is. Would you please explain. Thanks!!!

 

o sorry

tps is an abbreviation for throttle positioning sensor

on my gs300 i've had numerous problems with it, my neighbor has had problems with his gs430's as well. it's a fairly cheap little part if i recall correctly, but you should get a code for it if it's going bad if i also recall that correctly

 

Thanks man I'll check it out.. I hope I didnt buy a lemon. when the car doesn't bogg it run's like a champ the v8 sounds nasty!! I'm trying to make it run normal then slap a twin turbo setup or something LOL!!!!!!!!! Well see. Thanks tho

Are you getting a CEL (check engine light)?
If yes what is the code?

Moving to toyota tech

 

in the dia. port under the hood, put a jumper wire from b+ to FP. this will tell you if it is the fuel pump or the fp ecu.
