Getting the Wheeling Fever
I just checked my TPS sensor and it was out of adjustment. It was reading infinity at idle, which it should read <2.3 k ohm I got that adjusted and also noticed there is a dead spot when you rotate the throttle from closed to wide open throttle. It's only one small spot near the wide open throttle. (around 3.5k ohm)

Should I worry about this, what happens when there is a dead spot on the TPS ?? thanks

It might cause an error code to be set or a flat spot in the throttle response:

Or it may cause no problems. If you don't notice anything, run it as is. If it does cause problems, try cleaning it internally or replace it
