a bad TPS shouldnt prohibit the car from starting. to check if it IS the TPS, however, you could unplug it TEMPORARILY. if the car starts, then that was your problem.




Actually my car has been starting lately, but i need to keep it revved in order for it to stay running now. Right when i let off the gas it just bogs down and dies.

I just got back in from starting the supra up and it ran alot longer after i cleaned out the ISC but still when the engine got warmer it slowly bogged down and died. Next i will check out my TPS.

I decided to take some advice given in an earlier post in this thread, and actually read through the supra manual carefully. I did that and learned this problem can be caused by a number of other things. Those other things have to do with things such as the ignitor or the coil it self. This weekend im gonna be under the hood of the supra testing shit to see if i can narrow a few things down.

that does sound like a TPS problem. check that per the TSRM and get back to us. :)

Going off the picture of the layout of the 7MGTE, i have a hose missing directly to the right of the ISC (the small one) that leads down into a small hole at the bottom of the TPS. Also after inspecting the wires to my ISC, the wireing is pretty bad to that and actually a red wire has fallen out of the actual clip that plugs into the ISC. Im gonna go ahead and say that would most likely be my problem. How would i fix those wires that have fallen outta the actual clip?
