I have 2 issues going on and I don't know if they are related. First of all I have had a no start issue for quite a while now. I narrowed it down to the CPS and put a new one on a few months back. That resolved the issue, but this week it started again. I am getting no spark, but I can unplug the CPS and plug it back in and it corrects the problem. I checked the voltage at the TPS and everything looked within range. I put some dielectric goo on the connector to see if it helps, but won't know till I drive it a little more.
My second symptom that I don't know if it is related it that I am also having a high idle in relation to the start issue. It appears the throttle is open 3/16" when I look under the hood. You can't blip the throttle to get it to close, but I can manually push it closed with my hand. This makes me think this is mechanical in nature and not electrical.
Thoughts?
