crayzrooster Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 YEA but thats all motor GSR on treet tires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben. Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Not a bad time for a street tire GSR swap in a Hatch, could have been much better but not a bad time at all. I assume the vehicle is stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex37211 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 isn't mid 14s completely average for a gsr hatch? That's always what I've seen them run with basic i/h/e and full interior on 91 octane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 mid 14's is pretty average for a stock GSR swapped EH Edit: to answer your question yes the TPS can play a part in the car running like crap. if you are gettin a code for a TPS then change it out and see how she runs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben. Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Depends on elevation, really. Stock gsr swapped EH2's will run 15's and maybe even higher depending on where you are. Try running those mid 14's in Colorado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtlehead Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Back to the probelm, code 7 is the TPS. To desrcibe how to check to see if it is bad or a faulty/intermittent code would take an hour of my time, so I am not going to do that. First clear the ECM code and see if it goes away and stays away after driving the car through different cycles. Second clean the throtle plate (manually). Third if the problem comes back you will need to check the system to see if you have an open in the circuit or the TPS is bad. The testing procedure is simply voltage tests in the loop. Typically you are looking for 5v, then you have to determine whether it is 5v to the TPS or to ground. Or you can always replace the throtle position sensor and hope for the best.
