how do i set the throttle position sensor?


Recommended Posts

theres more to it than that, something about using an ohms meter, and setting it at zero with the throttle plate closed... something like that; i think
Sorry

Ok with a .31mm or .0122 feeler gauge between the throttle stop and the throttle lever. Rotate the tps switch untill you get continuity between pins a & b (the top 2 pins of the 4 on the switch plug). Tighten the adjustment bolts. When you open the throttle all the way, there should be no continuity.

yes, basically. i took a couple apart when adapting an XT engine into my GL10 and it has a wheel that sort of cams a switch between two closed positions and an open spot in the middle, hence the three wires (on mine at least), and the need to have it zeroed somewhere.
