Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)

i do know the tps has to be adjusted to the proper location for trans to work. just i dont know what it should be at. let me do some research.....

Get a multimeter and put the red lead on the middle wire on the TPS connector (might need to slip a paperclip in there if your probes aren't sharp). Put the black lead on the neg side of the battery or a good ground. With an already warm engine (fast idle solenoid off) turn your ignition key to on (just shy of start) and keep it there. Now loosen and adjust your TPS (two torqs screws) and adjust for .92 - .94 or so at idle. Tighten the screws. Now slowly actuate the throttle and look for smooth increase in voltage, up to about 3.8 to 4 or so is normal. If the voltage jumps around or there is any dead spots, replace your TPS. Napa has them pretty cheap.
