fj62--3FE idle problems finally fixed!! (1 Viewer)

[billmc]

my 62 has been idling high since I bought it 6 months ago. finally have the throttle body off and cleaned it. Also it took off the TPS but can't figure out how to adjust it. The screws you guys mention above...are you literally loosening the two screws that hold the TPS on the throttle body and rotating the whole TPS until it ideas better or are there screws inside the TPS I need to adjust? Can't figure out how to get the cover of the TPS off to see what the diagram shows (above). Lastly, the rotating piece on the backside of the TPS does not seem to be rotating fully back to the stopper when I spin it....is that the problem? It needs to be lubed up to reset properly and then my idle will be fixed?

You can’t open the TPS, the two screws you mentioned are for adjusting it. Clean the sticking spindle with electronic cleaner, not carb cleaner. once it moving freely, then perform the tests listed in the FSM. Only then will you know if it needs to be replaced.

This is an excellent thread for 3fe diagnostics. Needs to be preserved.

Threads like this are why I pay for gold on this site. Can't put a price on this tech.

Where on the TPS do you attach probes for the multi meter and which are neg. ground and positive?
As well what does Vic, vat, IDL and Ez mean?
