Re: GRIZZ’s English 2001 S10 Extra Cab 4.3 V6 Truck

Right

No.

Not really right.

Something silly and small still screwing around.

Throttle response intermittently disappears.

So starting with basics again.

Disconnected battery and isolated it.



Opened up scuttle again and got to the very crusty ECU



Cleaned outside

Then inspected plugs and sprayed with contact cleaner.

All clean.





Reconnected, reassembled and tested.

All good.

Closed up hood and started on TPS disassembly.

This is three legged octopus territory.

Eventually left with base minus sensor.





Next job……..

Shower and shave, go to town to mobile phone shop to get iPhone 12 Pro repair done.
Also visit Turkish bakers for bread and yummyness.

Then off to industrial estate to try source a replacement unit for the TPS.

No luck.

Not kept or available

So headed home and started looking.





Will only know by Saturday if the spare that @sammo has, is the same and if he wants to sell and podt it to me next week.

Pity no new ones available out there it seems.
