well I took the TPS out to clean and check it 2 weeks ago. I made marks on the TB so I could put it back perfectly. You're right though I turned those screws so I would imagine it's out of calibration now.
I just got up into the dash and found that switch it's got a clip close to it and then it runs up into the gauge panel. There's no clip up on the panel so I just removed the switch from the lower clip. I got a code reading of 12 I got to look up what that means.
Unfortunately last night I was driving it to the other side of the island and as I was getting close to the bottom of the other side I noticed my RPMs we're declining. I took it out of 5th gear and it died so I coasted to a stop. I turned it over and it seemed like it was turning over okay but wouldn't start. So I towed it the rest of the way and I'm trying to find out what's wrong now solo. I'm worried about the timing belt so I'm going to look at it first. Hopefully it's good and then I need to see if there's spark.
Without it starting im still going to check out all you suggest -vacuum
Much mahalos for all your help so far! I want to get this little thing happy. Plus I got to have it runnin in 5 yrs to drive 2 hrs back adda side so I no miss my music gig. You're right that was a scavenger hunt for the switch. Bless Imma do all I can.
Best way to test for spark besides a timing light?
