OK what do we use to check the Throttle Position sensor. Service manual shows a dual lamp deal that plugs in but the Mazda Comp catalog is a "no part found" Looks like something to light houses on Model train layout Thanks TW

Go to rx7club.com and do a search in the 2nd gen section. They can be made out of a couple light bulbs.
Chris is right on. Go to Radio Shack and get two 12VDC LEDs and three spade connectors.

Hook your multi meter to the green and the black leads of the TPS with it unpluged from the harness. Turn adjustment srew till it reads 1 Ohm. Much better then the light method.
I agree wuth using the multimeter seems like a more logical choice

The factory tool is two light bulbs. Works for them.
I've never used one anyway. Always work out the idle by ear. Idle is the only thing the TPS is going to effect anyway. If you're looking for any kind of IT relavent performance gain from the TPS you're looking in the wrong corner.
yep pretty bad I'm telling my crew what to do while I'm on vacation! must be why they call me arrive and drive :P thx guys!

Not really, the TPS on the S5 cars is a full range sensor. This will affect drivability thru the whole range. Mazda sells them for about $30 if I remember right.

The full range sensor on the S5 is for electronic OMP function.
we transfered the tps sensor from the 86 intake to the S5 intake
