Throttle Position Sensor

Does anyone know what the resistance values are for the throttle position sensor in both fully depressed and not depressed conditions? thanks.

Is there a reason (secret project) you need resistance instead of voltage ?
TPI is generally .54v (give or take .08v before a SES light) at idle (closed throttle) and anything past (IIRC) 4v is WOT.
TBI & MPFI (v6) are basically the same as well as far as the grey matter allows me to remember at the moment.
Such is my opinion, so shall it be...
