Would anyone be willing to teach me how to do these two things!?!?! I changed out my IAC, TPS, and my Ignition control module, and my timing is a little off and i think also my tps. I got it to run decent, but i can hear a little bit of pinging. I can come to you and bring some cash! I have a voltmeter and a timing gun as well. Just don't know exactly how to go about setting everything.

Is this for the SVO?

Yes for the SVO. I just need to know how to set it because, I'm also going to be buying a full tune up kit, turbo header, and a bunch of other parts, and without knowing how to time it or set my tps i know it will never run right with the parts I'm going to install.

The tps is simple, you just need a dmm and set it above .9 and youll be good. If its noty adjustable it should be in range. The iac isnt adjustable. Look up the tps setting procedure on the corral but its very simple.

Here are a couple links that will show you how to check your TPS.

For your timing, pull the spout connector and then set the timing to 10 degrees which is the factory setting. It'll probably run better at 12-14 degrees but if it detonates at all back it down.

Yup, spout out is very important, surprisingly the stock engine in my car with the long tubes likes 18* with no ping
