can the tps be adjusted by drilling out the cap??

INFORMATION Integra Help

I read that most generic tps units can be adjusted by drilling a 7/16 hole in the center of the round cover (thereby exposing the screw to adjust the pot inside).

Can anyone confirm this? If you’d like, I can send scans of the literature and the examples shown. If anyone has 5min to spare, a Dremel, and a dead tps, can you cut it up and take a looksie??

This may be easier than slotting the blind bolts and replacing it with a new unit…

???

Things that make me say… hmmmmmmmmmm…

sorry I dremeled the heads off mine then hand turned the remaining bolts off and replaced them with new ones. I saw no evidence that there was any kind of adjustable head under the cap. Of course I might have just ground through it.

To make the adjustment, you apparently need to drill through the outer cover to access the recessed screw. I am not sure about tegs though.

Thanks for the help,

hey neex i took a look in the busted tps that came with my b16 and didnt see any thing that looked adjustable. I dont know what else to tell you about it other than it is pretty busted up and may have had the screw broke off before i got a hold of it

Thanks for the help -- long time no see.  Say hello to your woman for me.  Is she still building a track car?

If you don’t want that snapped tps that you have, will you send it to me? I’d really like to disect the hell outta it to see if I can come up with a way to adjust them.

I am sure it can be done. Almost all of them are the same regardless of the manufacturer.

Thanks again!

Andrew.
