How can you tell if you have a bad TP Sensor?
Is there a way to verify if an existing Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is defective? Also, is there a way to check the MAP sensor as well?
Just like anyone else, I don't want to spend money on new parts when the existing ones might be just fine. I'm not getting any error codes, just trying to get rid of an occasional sputter when accelerating from a dead stop.
Here's what I've done so far: new plugs & wires, cleaned cap & rotor, removed & cleaned entire Throttle Body, fuel pressure steady at 49psi, installed new Idle Air Control (IAC) valve, verified proper vacuum w/ no leaks detected, verified no leak in the plenum, PCV good, & Oxy Sensors were just replaced. I've disconnected the battery for 20 minutes several times to reset the PCM.
Any advice, help would be appreciated. Thanks! .....Jeff...
