You mean you had the maf unhooked the entire time?

That will probably fix your problem. Mine threw the tps code for awhile on mine but the car ran fine. I had a bad splice, which is why i say check your wires.

we did and yes we left it unhooked without even thinking about it cause we'er trying to jump around between cars the other night and got lost on install.



What the hell does the tps do?
ohh and my friend said it made i pop sound when he was tunring it trying to get it lined on the 2 holes so it might be broken

To my understanding the TPS or throttle position sensor marks where the throttle body is open to. This along with the maf and everything else cordinates the air/fuel ratio. If its messed up then the engine does not get the right mix and bogs down the engine.
