Before this began happening I was in the process of changing out my old turbo for a rebuilt turbo because mine went bad. So, while i was waiting for my turbo to come in I was re-wrapping some of the wiring that was all ugly looking. There were also a few connectors that were just sitting in the corners of the engine so I cut them and electric taped them together (my 3sgte was swapped into a celica). I checked these wires before I cut them to make sure that they weren't connected or used for anything on the car. Anyway, the car was sitting for about a month before I had the chance to get the new turbo in.
Now, the problem is that when I started the car it continued to rev up all the way to red line.. My guess is the throttle position sensor somehow went bad.. Here is a video of what happens when I start the car: MVI_2620.mp4 video by pooper7 - Photobucket I disconnected the tps and put it back on and now this is happening: MVI_2622.mp4 video by pooper7 - Photobucket Any opinions on what could be causing this problem? -------------------- |

I did a code readout and it gave me 41.
According to this http://www.extreme-check-engine-light-code...1%20Decoder.htm it is the Throttle Position Circuit Fault -------------------- |

You know, I was thinking about that before I did my code read out. I will check my vac just to be sure though.
