Running rich after throttle body change

[oomz1975]

Replaced my throttle body, along with the tps, with a spare one.
The original developed a coolant leak.

Now the car seems to be running a little too rich...

Car was running perfectly before the change.

Any ideas?

is the TPS set up perfectly, they are quite fiddly to get right

if so then i'd check the TPS with your multimeter

I've found it needs to be exactly right between just before the click and not opening the butterfly, it's a very fine adjustment.

Worth also checking it's not full of oil and give it clean with something like carb cleaner etc

Thanks....

I'm sure it's just adjustment, I had cleaned it prior to fitting.

Yep, adjusted/fiddled with the tps made it alot better.
Still get slight flats spots in the higher rev range, but overall idles how it should now.
