* At idle the throttle blade is open 10°. When the throttle is moved from the idle position to the "wide open" position, the blade is rotated 80°.
** The PCM recognizes a TPS voltage of 1.80 volts or more over idle position voltage as "Wide Open Throttle" (WOT).
*** If the TPS voltage sensed at the PCM rises 2.43 volts or more from idle position voltage, the PCM shuts off fuel injection.
