If your throwing a TPS code Replace the TPS it's easy the hard part is setting it to .54v. I have an 85 also.

Do NOT simply replace the TPS out of hand because of the code. It is too easy to test to just throw away without knowing. The code could have been caused by something as simple and cheap as a poor electrical connection.

A code gets set when the ECM receives an out of parameter reading. That is a reading that doesn't match the readings of the other sensors, something out side of the expected range. The possible causes of codes are multiple. Trouble shooting is necessary to determine the cause of each code. So often I see posted, "The code (computer) said I had a bad XYZ sensor. There are no codes that call for the replacement of anything.
