THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The 3±wire Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is
mounted on the throttle body and is connected to the
throttle blade.
OPERATION
The TPS is a 3±wire variable resistor that provides
the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with an input
signal (voltage) that represents the throttle blade
position of the throttle body. The sensor is connected
to the throttle blade shaft. As the position of the
throttle blade changes, the resistance (output volt-
age) of the TPS changes.
The PCM supplies approximately 5 volts to the
TPS. The TPS output voltage (input signal to the
PCM) represents the throttle blade position. The
PCM receives an input signal voltage from the TPS.
This will vary in an approximate range of from .26
volts at minimum throttle opening (idle), to 4.49 volts
at wide open throttle. Along with inputs from other
sensors, the PCM uses the TPS input to determine
current engine operating conditions. In response to
engine operating conditions, the PCM will adjust fuel
injector pulse width and ignition timing.
The PCM needs to identify the actions and position
of the throttle blade at all times. This information is
needed to assist in performing the following calcula-
tions:
²Ignition timing advance
²Fuel injection pulse-width
²Idle (learned value or minimum TPS)
²Off-idle (0.06 volt)
²Wide Open Throttle (WOT) open loop (2.608
volts above learned idle voltage)
²Deceleration fuel lean out
²Fuel cutoff during cranking at WOT (2.608 volts
above learned idle voltage)
²A/C WOT cutoff (certain automatic transmis-
sions only)

(8) Start engine and let idle long enough to circu-
late power steering fluid through flow/pressure test
gauge.
(9) Shut off the engine and check the fluid level,
add fluid as necessary. Start engine again and let
idle.
(10) The initial pressure reading should be
345-552 kPa (50-80 psi). If pressure is higher inspect
the hoses for restrictions and repair as necessary.
(11) Increase the engine speed to 1500 RPM and
read the flow meter. The reading should be 2.4 - 2.8
GPM, if the reading is below this specification the
pump should be replaced.
CAUTION: This next step involves testing maximum
pump pressure output and flow control valve oper-
ation. Do not leave valve closed for more than three
seconds as the pump could be damaged.
(12) Close valve fully three times for three seconds
and record highest pressure indicated each time.All
three readings must be at pump relief pressure
specifications and within 345 kPa (50 psi) of
each other.
²Pressures above specifications but not within
345 kPa (50 psi) of each other, replace pump.
²Pressures within 345 kPa (50 psi) of each other
but below specifications, replace pump.
CAUTION: Do not force the pump to operate against
the stops for more than 2 to 4 seconds at a time
because, pump damage will result.
(13) Open the test valve and turn the steering
wheel to the extreme left and right positions against
the stops. Record the highest pressure reading at
each position. Compare readings to the pump specifi-
cations chart. If pressures readings are not within 50
psi. of each other, the gear is leaking internally and
must be repaired.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - 4.7L -
HYDRAULIC
The following procedures are used to test the oper-
ation of the power steering and hydraulic fan sys-
tems on the vehicle. This test will provide the gallons
per minute (GPM) or flow rate of the power steering
pump along with any maximum relief pressure. Per-
form test anytime a power steering system problem
is present. This test will determine if the power
steering pump, hydraulic fan, and power steering
gear are not functioning properly. It will also deter-
mine if the flow coming out of the hydraulic fan
motor is sufficient for the power steering gear. The
following pressure and flow test is performed using
the Power Steering Analyzer Tool kit 6815 (Fig. 2)
and Adapter kit 8630 (Fig. 3).
FLOW TEST - FLOW FROM POWER STEERING

good condition and adjusted properly.
(2) Connect the pressure gauge hose from the
Power Steering Analyzer to Tube 8630-2.
(3) Connect Adapter 8630-3 to Power Steering
Analyzer test valve end.
(4) Disconnect the high pressure hose from the
power steering pump.
(5) Connect Tube 8630-2 to the pump hose fitting.
(6) Connect the power steering hose from the fan
motor to Adapter 8630-3.
(7) Open the test valve completely.
(8) Start engine and let idle long enough to circu-
late power steering fluid through the flow/pressure
test gauge.
(9) Shut off the engine and check the fluid level,
add fluid ass necessary. Start engine again and let
idle.
(10) The initial pressure reading should be 483 -
690 kPa (70 - 100 psi). If pressure is higher inspect
the hoses for restrictions and repair as necessary.

DESCRIPTION
STEERING LINKAGE ± RIGHT HAND DRIVE
(RHD) VEHICLES
Vehicles equipped with right hand drive (RHD)
steering utilize the same components of left hand
drive vehicles. The RHD Steering linkage is designed
as a mirror image of left hand drive linkage with the
exception of the steering damper (Fig. 1), which is
mounted on the same side of the vehicle weather
RHD or LHD. See figure below for reference. All
specifications are the same as LHD. Refer to Group
19, Steering of the gasoline engine service manual for
additional information.
DESCRIPTION
The steering linkage consists of a pitman arm,
drag link, tie rod, and steering dampener (Fig. 2) .
An adjustment sleeve on the tie rod is used to set
wheel toe position. The sleeve on the drag link is
used for steering wheel centering.
CAUTION: If any steering components are replaced
or serviced an alignment must be performed, to
ensure the vehicle meets all alignment specifica-
tions.
CAUTION: Components attached with a nut and cot-
ter pin must be torqued to specification. Then if the
slot in the nut does not line up with the cotter pin
hole, tighten nut until it is aligned. Never loosen the
nut to align the cotter pin hole.
