TPS voltage

I set the voltage on my TPS to 0.552 and WOT is 4.28, does this sound right to yall? Any advantages to higher voltage setting or lower for that matter. Thanks

Sounds close... I believe it's more .54 @ idle, and 4.6 @ WOT

Perhaps your throttle body is not opening completely?

I've got the same engine ('87 with an automatic), and my TPS shows 4.26 at WOT and 0.55 at idle. I was wondering if it shouldn't be higher at WOT. I'm pretty sure the throttle is open all the way.
