How to Test and Adjust Toyota 22RE TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) Pickup, 4Runner
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
How to adjust the Throttle Position Sensor on a 22RE. Applies to a 3VZ as well if you follow the specs for your engine. TPS adjustment for 1985 - 1995 Toyota Pickup and 4Runner. Somehow, I failed to mention how to adjust it...loosen the screws and turn it to adjust it.

Hey everyone. My videos have improved a TON since this one, and I'm currently rebuilding a Toyota W56 transmission. If you like this kind of stuff, check it out! W56 Rebuild Series: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mpqMscetfMu9YMY.html

So where does the adjustment part come in? The test was explained clearly but there was no adjustment. What if you are out of spec? How do you adjust?
Wow. Best video I've found. Easy to follow, and detailed on each step. Thanks a bunch. My '85 Toyota lives to fight another day. :)
Thanks for the video. The hex screw are almost as difficult as the Phillips if the air horn is in place. We screwed studs into the body and placed lock washers and nuts. Way easier.
You are the man!! Yo!! My car had issues for years until I found this video Awesome sauce

Wow brother thank you very much i also bought a taiwan cheap tps and i cant pass smog and it runs terrible. I just bought the EOM tps and after watching your video like 35 times i feel very confident to go ahead and remove my tps and adjust it. Also, thanks for the awesome tip of swapping out lame screws for Allen wrench screws

Hi I ordered An oem TPS I’m having an issue every now and then my automatic transmission will shift into 1st but will reach high rpm before second gear and won’t engage until I come to a stop and start over I’m thinking it’s the tps. Misfire at idle at times and acceleration hesitation
Best I watch 20 videos all said blabla. Bla blablaba urs is clean and simple

Hi I have a 1986 Toyota pickup 22rte turbo automatic transmission I got the same info from Lce diagram readings and could not get the same readings like you engine is a 22re in a sense but stop screw is totally different- could you remember if your adjustment is at center point? I think I have no choice but to adjust by feel when I adjust down truck starts shaking and adjust up feels better also the tps I bought was bench tested from seller and is same part number as yours
Thank's for the video

Thank you for this! My pickup occasionally runs low and stumbles at idle plus hesitates at acceleration sometimes, and gave me a TPS code! I can’t seem to get mine to open loop, only 0.03, but I may just leave it if it works fine otherwise!

What size feeler gauge did you use for the clearance? I’m having surging and idle issues rn HELP! 😭
I'm not getting anything between idl and e2 regardless of clearance. Just 1. Does this mean a bad tps? Truck isnt running and this is the existing tps.
I now know how to test it but how do I adjust it so I get an open loop for test 3

Is this what you do if your truck never idles down and it’s like doing a tranny drop every time I put it in gear?
this test pissed me off. I had stumbling from 2k down to 1.6k and suspected tps. Problem went away after unplugging tps. Tps passed all these tests but problem went away after replacing tps. What good is this test if it doesnt help you know for sure its good or bad?
Hey man this was an excellent video explaining how to test my tps. Im having issues with my 22re and I believe the tps to be the issue. But I'm still a little confused on how to adjust if the measurements aren't within spec. Do you have another video im missing? Or can you explain this?

Hey, did you apply vaccuum to the throttle pushoff valve above the tps before setting the idle stop screw?
@854XTOY

That's a dash pot, it keeps the throttle from slamming shut when you let off the gas pedal quickly. It's just a diaphragm and spring with an orfice vented to atmosphere.
So when it’s out of spec are you loosen the tps and making minor adjustments like that ?

Correct.
Anyone run into a code 52 - knock sensor because of their code 41 TPS? Been battling a 52, 24, and 41. Hoping the TPS, new gas (sitting for 9 months) and an O2 sensor does the trick. Don't mean to make it a forum, just wondering if you get here because of a knock code.
So many haystacks. Great needle!
On those adjustment figures for the feeler gauges seem weird compared to the feeler gauges im able to purchase should any set of feeler gauges work for this.. the 0.0224 and 0.0335 look as if they should say 0.224 or 0.335 thanks

The throttle blade stop screw? If I recall correctly, the adjustment is to screw it in so it barely touches the linkage, and then tighten it 1/4 turn and snug the lock nut. Thanks for watching
This was a well explained video except one thing, one of test, the senor needed adjusted and you didn't go through how to adjust the sensor and wouldn't it throw off the other readings on the other tests. Question?

Yeah, bad oversight on my part. You have to loosen the screws to adjust the TPS. I recommend swapping out the old screws with allen head bolts from LCE or 4Crawler. Each adjustment will affect the other adjustments. You will have to finesse it until all specifications are met for each test. Start in the middle of the adjustment.

I noticed the dashpot in the video is installed. The throttle stop setting changes if that dashpot is disconnected. . . This system was badly rigged by a previous shop so I'm trying to get it to run correctly. ,. I suspect the dashpot stop adjustment was all the way in, on this unit. I suspect they did that to raise the idle . .

How do you adjust the dashpot? My idle is super high (2 to 2.5k rpms) and I plugged the hole the end of the tiny little intake hose hanging off it but that didn't do anything. Would be nice to try to adjust that before I go the TPS route

@nataliedavis9085 The dash pot simply keeps the throttle from slamming shut when you let off the gas pedal quickly. From what I understand, and have done so myself, you can completely remove it if it's messed up and giving you trouble.
So I see how to test it but how do you adjust if it doesn't pass the tests?

Got a brand new sensor and it will not go into spec with the 0.77mm & 0.85mm. Their either both OL or having a reading. Never just the 85 OL and the other reading literally anything. It's always OL on both or showing a reading. What brands other than rip off Denso are trustworthy?
