iv just bought a r19 16v and when i was driver it home i had a real problem, the seems to die like there is no fuel getting to the engine, but if i put the pedel to the floor she will go fine, it only hapens when the throttle is half open, its really embarrassing, going through town like a kangaroo  |

hehe nice, if u buy that one you will have to work out where to posistion it correctly, they dont just bolt on and off u go, they are factory set.
there is however on this site a guide to posistiong it right, u need a volt meter to do the job. |

Setting up. These are general values, its taken from a red TPS which is found on espaces, 16V's and so on.
3 wires, green red and yellow.
The outer wires, red and green are really what concern you. But onthe other hand your reference voltage will also affect these readings!
red - yellow 5.78kohms 4.65V
red - green 2.01kohms 0.28V
yellow - green 4.27kohms 4.96V
Ignition needs to be on obviously.
