How to Test and Adjust Toyota 22RE TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) Pickup, 4Runner

How to adjust the Throttle Position Sensor on a 22RE. Applies to a 3VZ as well if you follow the specs for your engine. TPS adjustment for 1985 - 1995 Toyota Pickup and 4Runner. Somehow, I failed to mention how to adjust it...loosen the screws and turn it to adjust it.

Hey everyone. My videos have improved a TON since this one, and I'm currently rebuilding a Toyota W56 transmission. If you like this kind of stuff, check it out!

Thanks for the video. The hex screw are almost as difficult as the Phillips if the air horn is in place. We screwed studs into the body and placed lock washers and nuts. Way easier.

Wow brother thank you very much i also bought a taiwan cheap tps and i cant pass smog and it runs terrible. I just bought the EOM tps and after watching your video like 35 times i feel very confident to go ahead and remove my tps and adjust it. Also, thanks for the awesome tip of swapping out lame screws for Allen wrench screws

Wow. Best video I've found. Easy to follow, and detailed on each step. Thanks a bunch. My '85 Toyota lives to fight another day. :)

Thank you for this! My pickup occasionally runs low and stumbles at idle plus hesitates at acceleration sometimes, and gave me a TPS code! I can’t seem to get mine to open loop, only 0.03, but I may just leave it if it works fine otherwise!

Hey man this was an excellent video explaining how to test my tps. Im having issues with my 22re and I believe the tps to be the issue. But I'm still a little confused on how to adjust if the measurements aren't within spec. Do you have another video im missing? Or can you explain this?

Hi I ordered An oem TPS I’m having an issue every now and then my automatic transmission will shift into 1st but will reach high rpm before second gear and won’t engage until I come to a stop and start over I’m thinking it’s the tps. Misfire at idle at times and acceleration hesitation

[likklejordeeTV]

What size feeler gauge did you use for the clearance? I’m having surging and idle issues rn HELP! 😭

[dsc]

Appreciate the video, nice work. Do you think a bad tps could cause unusual high idle at start up?

[RcbasherNcrasher]

On those adjustment figures for the feeler gauges seem weird compared to the feeler gauges im able to purchase should any set of feeler gauges work for this.. the 0.0224 and 0.0335 look as if they should say 0.224 or 0.335 thanks

I been looking for a video like this. Thank you for this. I have both haynes and toyota manual but needed a video like this!!🤘

[michaelcox]

This was a well explained video except one thing, one of test, the senor needed adjusted and you didn't go through how to adjust the sensor and wouldn't it throw off the other readings on the other tests. Question?

[picoliciousartistry]

Great video, thanks for the help I'm back on the road 👍

[autodidacticartisan]

I'm not getting anything between idl and e2 regardless of clearance. Just 1. Does this mean a bad tps? Truck isnt running and this is the existing tps.

[davidmercado]

Hi, great video. What’s the specs for putting the stop screw back into place?

[kawijv]

Hi I have a 1986 Toyota pickup 22rte turbo automatic transmission I got the same info from Lce diagram readings and could not get the same readings like you engine is a 22re in a sense but stop screw is totally different- could you remember if your adjustment is at center point? I think I have no choice but to adjust by feel when I adjust down truck starts shaking and adjust up feels better also the tps I bought was bench tested from seller and is same part number as yours

[Middleagedgamer_]

So wait. What do you adjust? The throttle screw or the sensor itself(up and down)?
