In my quest to find out what is wrong with the rpms dropping on my car and after alot of searching/reading I am convinced it is either the TPS or the sensor on the TB, if not the TB itself. The rpms only drop when I lift off the throttle, when I am accelerating or just keeping pressure on the pedal they don't drop and the car idles fine as well.
I have no codes or stored codes, I read them yesterday. I have an ODBII cable and use Scan XL but it only gives the throttle position reading and doesn't check the sensor itself, it wasn't available in the PID list.
This seems to be a very good guide on how to check the TPS sensor and I'm ***uming it's the same procedure for the sensor on the TB itself? Does the TB butterfly open with just the ignition on, I'm thinking it does cos the guide doesn't mention about starting the car?
I have cleaned the TB once before but while it was in situ so I am going to remove it this time to give it a thorough clean. Is there anything I shouldn't clean or areas I need to concentrate on?
