[QUOTE="Lyrics36, post: 1000273, member: 20925"] Ionbeam: Thanks for advice. I was probably unclear. Mechanic was very definite when he told me that even though the TPS was bad, it should have nothing to do with the low cylinder pressure. Hopefully the leak down test will ascertain exactly where the problem rests. I don't mind valve problems nearly as much as bad rings scoring the cylinders are something along those lines. You mention misfiring above. When I was trying to start the FJR when the error code came up it misfired for the first time since I bought it 70,000 miles ago. Pretty loud to. Based on my understanding of your post above and my further reading on the matter that would seem to indicate a TPS going bad. So it looks at this point like I just have to wait for him to get to the leakdown test Tuesday or so. Rats. Thank you again for all your advice. [/QUOTE]
