[V8] TPS? - Injector Seals (update)

[S_Matus]

I have not had an opportunity to install the new seals that I'm sourcing from NAPA.  NAPA part number MPF312085 for $2.59 will include 8 seals and a cone to install the seal over the injector tip.  I'm buyting two kits one for the fuel rail and one for injector tips.
I will evaluate the quality of the Napa parts and install this weekend.  I beats the $2.25 each the stealer quoted me.

After I get the "leak" repaired I can further investigate the TPS behavior.
I'll keep everyone informed.

Scott.

It occurred to me that throttle position and 2,000rpm are independent 
things.  You can have 2k at 5% throttle or 25% throttle.  I think we're 
looking in the wrong area....
