So I just bought my new TPS feeling very excited to get my fiero to be normal again…. Well I plug my computer in and the new TPS was reading 5 volts off! It is supposed to be at 0 or -1.25 volts. What is my problem here? I know it’s the right TPS because I ordered it from Rock Auto. Please help! ------------------

Well forget I posted that…. Come to find that I had gotten a TPS for a 1985 4.3L Monte Carlo…

I just replaced mine and had to bend the arm on the new TPS to get the voltage up. My was a Delco for what that’s worth.

It's a whole lot better to rotate the TPS rather than bend its metal arm. If the TPS didn't come pre-slotted, it's pretty easy to create slots in the plastic housing.

I put my new TPS on. It ran well it idled and didn’t die in gear. Then I let it idle for about 10 mins. I come back an hour later to start it to check the voltage and the voltage is right but now it is back to the same problems it had before. I really don’t Understand and it sounds worse ------------------

Does anyone have any idea to why my fiero is still acting up? It was working fine then went back to its same problems as im about to list: can’t idle, dies when put in drive or reverse. Doesn’t sound well either. Much help is appreciated ------------------

Try replacing the ignition coil and ignition module with AC delco parts

I replaced the ignition coil and the ICM….. still same problems. Should I try figuring out how to do an EGR delete? ------------------

I’m running out of possible solutions. I don’t want to have to replace everything that is a possible problem but it seems I’m already heading that way.
