Low idle

My idle is a bit low (600) and its sometimes cutting out on the down shift 4th to 2nd .
It seems to happen on when at operating temp . Cars a m20b25 with lightened flywheel.
I have tested the blue sensor 4.36 kohms cold at both ecu and sensor and .375 kohms hot at sensor and ecu .
I don't seem to have and air leaks and the icv is nice and free.
I was unsure how to test tps (see pic )
Anyone help ?

Hi Shed. that TPS looks like the item fitted to a switchable ZF auto ... although testing is the same.
Listen for a microswitch click as you gently open the throttle butterfly by hand. Maybe necessary to measure continuity to be sure the ECU is receiving the TPS signals.

If you look down past the pins with a torch you can see the pin numbers at the base of the pins.
