Like the title says... I adjusted my TPS tonight and took it for a test drive. Everything was fine until I came to a stop in a parking lot to wait for someone to pull out and the car just sputtered and died and backfired. It would start at first, I got out and checked under the hood for loose connections, didn't find any, and got back in. Tried to start it again and it did but not right away, had to crank it for a few seconds. Then I started to pull into the parking spot and when i let the clutch out the car died again. Same thing again... I had to crank it for a few seconds to get it started. I went inside the store and did what I needed to do and then the car started right up like it always has. Drove home with 2 stops on the way and it didn't die again or even start to sputter or anything. My idle is pretty high now though. Was around 700-800rpm before I adjusted the TPS, now the low is around 1100rpm, and sometimes it will bounce up to 1500.
Thanks in advance
