Ok, now the car dies when it warms up, and TPS is bad.

Ok, so now my car starts again, idles at around 2,000 rpm, and dies when it warms up.

I adjusted the TPS, but it still died... Then I checked it, and it read the wrong resistance values at idle and at WOT. This is with another TPS and throttle body.

My other TPS is fine at idle, but the reading cut out above 3900ohms of resistance.

Anyone run into this sort of issue before? I am getting another TPS, as that obviously contributes to the problem, but I think that something else may be wrong.

I also re-aligned the timing, which was WAY off from where it needed to be....

EDIT: The engine dying when it gets hot would be a closed loop issue, right?
