I think we are just failing to speak one another's language. I see now what you are referring to. I was asking if my assumptions were correct and you took that as my saying they were fact. Like I said, your input is appreciated. So, I have a more specific question on this situation. I've rigged...

Hmm, I was hoping that I wouldn't come off as a helpless chud but apparently I've failed that. I come to places like these seeking the advice of the knowledgable and experienced. I genuinely appreciate the input. I don't mind being wrong. Hell, if I were right I wouldn't be here asking for help...

Good to know, that's what I needed to hear. Onto the ISCV. Thank you.

I will try this soon. I'm willing to try anything at this point but I am not thinking it's the culprit because I can hear it 'tick tick tick' when I kill the car. I have metered it out and it test good. Also, I have pulled the plug on it trying to isolate it as the issue and the effect varies...

I appreciate your help. Hoping someone else here has seen a similar situation.

I've seen un-metered air entering the system cause high idle conditions with other motors in the past. I popped the brake booster vac line on this one and it does bring the rpm up with a significant leak. I do not hear any audible leaks, though. It's a pretty quiet motor. Very little valve...

@AJ - yes, I reset the timing. 10 Deg BTDC. I've suspected a vacuum leak from the beginning but I've sprayed starting fluid all over the place and cannot seem to find one. With no codes that means the TPS is set correctly now, right?

Ok, scratch the code 41. I think I was following the GTE steps for the TPS. I started from full clockwise and turned counter until I got the change, bolted it down and now I get the constant fast flashing CEL. No codes. Yay. Why the hell is my idle still so high, though? It's still running...

I think I am confusing myself now having it rolling through my brain for a solid day straight. It shouldn't be this complicated, I know. Throttle is closed - I've stared down the pipe, pulled the TB loose to check and code 51 is not present. I've adjusted the TPS by resistance and by...

Hmm - perhaps we're not talking about the same screw. There are three that I can see. One rests on a diaphragm with some kind of filter attached. This screw is closest to the hood. The second one is lower, closer to the driver side and set back toward the rear a bit on another part of the...

TPS is giving me hell. Code 51 is gone but code 41 refuses to go away no matter how I adjust this sensor. Is it truly that sensitive? I haven't been able to get my hands on metric feeler gauges but I've used my c-mic to get pretty close to .7mm and used my digital multimeter - I just cannot seem...

Thanks for the input folks. very much appreciated. I'll grab a new TPS from vatozone after xmas since I get no readings off this one. Bled the brakes, no change. I'm about 95% sure its the master cylinder. I think I saw a link in my forum searching for an Aisin around here somewhere. I know...

So I was thinking on it and realized that I have, in fact, already shown my moron card.... :) Seriously, though - anyone care to throw me a line on this one?

So I'm not a complete newbie when it comes to wrenching on cars. I've gotten plenty dirty with head gaskets, timing belts and the like. I *am* a complete newbie to these 7M motors though. I just purchased am 88 7MGE. The odo stopped at 195k. It runs and the price was right so I couldn't pass...
