273, TPS or Eng. Temp. Sensor. BOTH?
Posted by SirLomax, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
97 Eagle Talon,(Standard Trans.)
When I accelerate I get a little "Coughing" Hesitation, And see black smoke from exhaust. Black Smoke is
Excess Gas right? Blue is oil??. Well when I put it in nutrual
at any speed it will idle around 3000 RPM's untill i come to a complete Stop then it will idle down around 1000 RPM's. TPS?? When i sit for more than 5-6 mins, It starts to over heat, Fans do not come on. But both do come one when i turn on the A/C. Witch is nice, Because I can use that to keep from OverHeating ?? Temp Sensor ??
What I have done so far.
I replaced Thermostat, Checked Engein codes.
Codes report problems with TPS, MAS and Temp. Sensors.
What should I do now?
My Guess, Is that the temp sensor is bad, Making the Fuel/Air mixture for a cold Engein, The TPS adding to the problem by reporting incorrect Throttle Position, Changing the Fuel/Air Mixture again.
How much are TPS's? And do the come from the Dealer only?

apparently a problem with the sensor right below your radiator hose may cause this. I only bring this one up because a lot of people including myself have had problems with the hose leaking onto a temperature sensor. This might be it.
It would be pretty apparent from a chalky substance sitting on top of your sensor below your radiator hose. Of course, it's very common for people's TPS sensors to go bad as well.
Good luck!
