reving problem
ok i have taken my throttle body and that off to replace the elbow gasket (where the bellmouth was) and put it back to gether.
thats all good intill i start the car and it is reving atleast 500rpm more than it should.
why is this and does anyone have a fix for it.
cheers,
jamie
check the alignment of your TPS, if it is out it will rev higher than normal.
Undo the two screws holding it and move it side to side until the revs drop to normal.

as far as i know it will rev higher for a a few starts? take it for a drive, put in park let revs drop again, then start car and sould be fine, the computer will adjust

yeah ive dont the rev it to 2000 odd revs. also took it for a drive and turned it off and started it again. still hasnt worked
try adjusting the throttle cable, losen it off a bit cause it could be tight and holding it open a little
THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT FOR DISPLACEMENT

throttle cable looks fine. i played around with it and didnt help it any. it is alot worse in park and neutural. probally 200revs more in gear. has anyone got mre info on this tps sensor

there should be a little screw that moves the throttle plate open at the back of your throttle body...unscrew this right out and see if it helps
BTW the tps switch is the on the bottom of your throttle body

TPS is the black thing on the bottom of the throttle body that is attached to the shaft that the valve sits on.
It is possible that you've split a vac hose, or a gasket and that there is an air leak that's stuffing your idle up.
Gravity is proof that nature keeps getting us down.
the holden mechanic
vacuum leaks drops the idle rpm and makes it run like dogs breakfast... but have you noticed a loud hissing sound???
The Man With No Name
no loud hissing that i can hear. the gasekets are fine (i made sure this time)
the holden mechanic
well if its no loud hissing then its probably not your idle air control.....sooo can you check the throttle plate screw on the back of the T/B??
The Man With No Name
i will have a look
The Man With No Name
just finished looking. it didnt work so i pulled the whole lot apart and put it back together and now its fine. cant work it out but not going to complain now. :P
cheers everyone for there help
