ok i went to set the timing on my 4ruuner last night,i let the yot warm up and then jumped the te1 and e1 taps together then hit it with a timing gun but the timing was the same with or without the pins jumped.arent the jumped pins spose to sort out the timing or im i just crazy!

 

Are you throwing any codes when you jump the connectors?

 

i got a code 11

 

Sounds like a problem I had. You might need to try and adjust your TPS and get rid of that code before you can set your base timing.

 

is there any special way to adjust the tps?

 

and what is a code 11 anyways???

 

I believe its a TPS code. You can search on how to adjust the TPS, but most people go to the 4crawler web sight for the info.

 

hey thanks alot 4 the help

 

11 is "Switch Signal": TPS IDL contacts not closed, Neutral start switch on, or A/C on when diagnostic jumper inserted.
You may be able to rotate the TPS a little bit to see if the contacts will close and let you set the timing.
