Thanks for the follow up on the rest of the story of the tps. I am holding off on any new parts until Mark reads the datalogs, if things are not right it should show up there.
I pulled my distributor cap last night to see how the new rotor was doing and it had made it's way loose again, it can actually rock a bit on the shaft which could cause a spark scatter at high rpm possibly? The low end shouldn't be effected but it is still something that shouldn't be the way it is. I have gone 9,000 miles with it and it can work but when it has problems it makes you wonder WTF quality control was doing that day.
talk to ya later
