DirtyComanche Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Dude... You're from Vernon. That's almost scary. I lived there... Umm, anyways, sounds like the TPS got wet. It'll probably take care of itself. Or maybe not. Let it run for a while and warm up, it'll dry everything out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Last I heard of a problem like that, it was a wet TPS. Got a hair dryer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepman09 Posted September 14, 2008 Author Share Posted September 14, 2008 I am not sure what it was but i undid all electrical connectors and vac lines and blew them out with compressed air waited 15 min and hooked it all back up and away it went! go figure! i didnot find any moisture in any connectors or vac lines but hey it worked :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 You're lucky. Water usually destroys the TPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLHTAZ Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I'm glad I read this as I was thinking about doing a good engine wash job in the very near future now that I have all the leaks fixed :brows:. Guess I'll be finding a shower cap for the throttle body... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
