Thanks guys,
Yes, I'm hoping to pass emissions test. I'm also just wanting to get this thing sorted from a known, which to me is the stock ECU. Who knows what ECU is running in there now? What else is it doing wrong? Maybe it's even messing up the Transmission's brain?
So I have a used ECU coming in the mail. It's still freezing snow and ice everywhere outside so this TPS adjustment laying across the engine sounds extra fun.
My plan is to put in the new ECU, hook the battery back up. Start it, see if the IAT code goes away. If so, I'll change the spark plugs and report on the how the old ones were looking. Then drive it around and see how the transmission O/D light is doing and test TPS for functionality and then adjust. Making that screw be no touchy touchy is a bummer. The average mechanic is going to assume that's the idle stop adjustment screw. <eye roll>
