To answer both questions,
The TPS yes when i was in san bernidino i pulled the plug on the tps thinking it was that initionally, figuring that if it didn't do anything, i would know that it was the problem, i took it off and it didnt do anything.

so i figured it was bad and bought a new one and put that on..

When i went to the parts store the guy said it could possibly be my idel control valve, and i figured might as well try it. so thats when i changed the IAC.

but the tps is plugged in now, and has been for like a dgood day and atleast 25 starts, why will it still throw that code then? bad tps wire mabey?

and i still wanna know why i dont have CC electronics....
that pissed me off when i found that today

Disconnect the battery for a while, or go to autozone and get the code cleared, see if it comes back.

Im really thinking that something isnt sealing right with the intercooler/blower/tb.

I was thinking sothing of the same, when a mechanic told me the the intake manifold could be cracked, or I may have lifted it off the head. however when I put my finger over the idle hole off the TB, the car dies, if it were a open seal (open to the outside) then it would suck air from elsewhere and wouldn't die when I put my finger over the hole.
if its an internal leak, meaning that the blower and intake isn't seating correctly or the tb may not be seating correctly, that's possible, except why or may I say how is it able to run soley off the idle hole its tiny like as small is my pinky...

I just don't get this, I guess I'm going to have to take the tb off ( that I can't do today due to work and lack of tools) but ill have to do tht tomorow.

Can you take a picture of the hole you're blocking off. I don't have a throttle body I can look at.

From his description before, I think he's blocking the maf.

That's what I'm thinking but I want to make sure.

Blocking the MAF will pretty much shut the car down as it doesn't think it's getting any air.

That hole i think your talking about the same one.

sorry the pic is so small, its off my camera phone.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that hole is soley for the MAF sensor. If you plug that you're gonna kill the car. Have you unplugged the MAF sensor yet? Don't drive it around with it like that but if it smooths things out it might be indicative of the issue.

The IAC comes in through the side of the Throttle body if I'm correct. I'm just not sure as that's the older style throttle body.

yup it kills the car. dead.....

i cant drive it its a danger to myself and others around me...

and it will completely blow my trans if i continue driving, the brakes are allmost toasted from the trying to slow down on the fwy and crazy grade downhills.

ohh and yes i did unplug it, it didn't do anything.

meaning noting as in the car wont start up.

Do you still have your stock pcm?

no i sent it back to zzp! for the core


and they still havent called me back
bad cust serv.

Actually, that's the newer style '99+ tb. But anyway, that hole is just for the maf.

If it looks like my '98 style behind there, there is a square cut right before the throttle plate that leads to the IAC and exits on the other side of the plate. The IAC controls the idle by constricting this passage.

You said you got the idle down lower right? Have you tried spraying brake or carb cleaner around the tb spacer, intercooler, or lower intake to search for a vacuum leak? If it finds one, RPMs will go up.

Question!

Why is it that every time I call ZZP their phone is busy! Or they just dont call me back.

in the words of Sagat Funk Dat!
