Not a loose connector. I think i may have sorted it. It seems that when i have the engine running my peddle goes nowhere near flat out as it redlines at half throttle, but the butterfly valves in the carbs are only half open. It does seem very rich so this may sort itself a bit when i get it tuned. ...

losing tps when engine is running

Just installed my mjlj and calibrated the tps with the engine off but mjlj on.

it works fine when the engine isn't running and shows a healthy range of movement.

As soon as i start the engine the tps goes. The rev reading shows on the computer but not when it is connected to my digi dash

any ideas?
