Okay-I did check continuity over BOTH wires from plug side at ECU(going to sensor)and plug side(coming from connector side before the sensor)Both read 14,000 ohms.And I measured as you said AC VOLTS at the plug where sensor meets connector(sensor unplugged)...the voltage there was 4 volts-and NO drop or increase during cranking.Your thoughts?Was not able to start the engine.(FI error 23).(it says to measure with engine running).Error would not allow her to start(?)After I reconnected the sensor,cranked a few times with the FI error flashing,then fired and ran.Also went through the cold cycle.and when returning to set idle,it was idling up and down in a rhythmic fashion.(perhaps a surge?).Also,after I got the idle going"kind of"smooth(not right though),when blipping the throttle,she dropped back to ABOVE the set idle(as before),then settled back to the set idle.(as before).But I did notice(as did my mechanic before)that when she's idling,if you close the throttle PAST the stop with the grip,she drops slightly more-not much,but some(he said "maybe" the cables had been stretched or damaged somehow) .Yet all my throttle plays are there-she's not pulling open at idle.When I checked my cables after this began to happen,I tried to lube them with one of those pressure lubers.It really didn't fit our throttle cable design unfortunately,but I did notice at the throttle plate end ,the cables(both) had one or two strands each that had broken.They were up inside the casing,so you wouldn't notice them by just looking.I worked the cable from throttle grip(removed from grip) and other end back and forth(removed from actuator) -I couldn't detect any hanging in the cable.Do you think it's just possible that somehow those one or two strands are rubbing "just enough" to cause friction in the return action?The strands weren't bent or kinked like they had jammed in the casing,but they were broken.If the throttle is closed,and the cables are adjusted correctly,HOW can CLOSING THE GRIP past the stop cause MORE closing on the throttlebodies(assuming they're already fully closed at closed throttle?)(sorry for repeating myself about the meter reading there)
