Help with failed smog test.

I have a 1985 Toyota 2wd pickup that I am trying to get smogged. The guy said it failed because it wont go into "base Timing Mode". If I jump the proper plug, it DOES NOT change the pitch of the motor or alter the timing. WTF?? Any suggestions?????????????????????Other than to move away from California
Note:
I ohmed out the TPS and its seem to be OK.

I found this under the CA-DMV. It is a link to help drivers with your state-related inspection. You may find useful info there
if you haven't checked already.

Good Luck.

Give the guy a 6-pack of beer and a $20. That'll make it pass.
