Quick, Dumb Question Regarding TPS Adjustment on LH2.4
Maybe I'm reading too much into how it's phrased, but this part always made me wonder a little bit (this text can be found on virtually all FAQs and some forums):
"4. Adjusting the TPS.
Loosen the TPS adjustment screws. First turn the TPS clockwise (away from the electrical connector) until it stops. While keeping your finger on the throttle disk so it won't move, turn the TPS counter-clockwise (toward the connector) until you hear or feel a "click". Continue turning until it stops, then tighten the screws."
Everything makes sense except the last sentence, whether "it" is the click or the TPS. Are you supposed to continue turning the TPS until the click stops or the unit can no longer be rotated counter-clockwise? That's two very different things. I assume it's referring to the click, but it either clicked or it didn't (not a duration thing). Otherwise, continuing to rotate the TPS past the click would defeat the purpose of finding the click in the first place.
Sometimes, I have too much time to analyze things, or I overthink stuff, but I was just wondering. I had already adjusted the TPS to where it passes the feeler gauge test and many folks say not to set it "hair trigger precise" but I was messing with it the other day and want to re-set it correctly without having to mess with feeler gauges again.
