Wish I could help, don't have one yet. Perhaps in a couple of weeks I will have an answer for you. Sorry for the worthless post.

Wait! Depending on what TPS you have they will only read a minimal temp of like high 300's. Maybe this helps but my buddy has one on his tuscani and it does'nt go below 392 or something like that. Hope this helps.

Damnit, sorry I'm an idiot. I'm thinking of the EGT. Sorry, again this is a useless post.

YaY, what does it read now? and how are you reading it? where is it? what does it look like? Can you take a pic? I'd like to know because I have no idea what you are talking about, maybe I should'nt be in this thread but I'm eager to learn Are you using an aftermarket tps meter? Inquiring minds want to know.
