'Spose I'll Need To Recalibrate My TPS?
 
Let me qualify by saying that I have zero reason to believe there's any malfunction.

However, I've been quite involved in an injector fix and while the car has been apart I've been taking care of a good number of other things that one just takes care of while his car is apart.

For some damn reason I thought it would be a good idea to remove my TPS before I realized I really had no reason to remove it.

Simply based on the removal and immediate re-installation of the sensor, do you guys suppose I'm gonna need to recalibarate it?

Here's a link on how to check/adjust the TPS below.

No doubt you'll need to accurately mount that TPS. Measuring the resistance of pins 2 & 3 on the potentiometer before removing it is one procedure to get it mounted back to within it's same range. Another way to readjust it using a feeler gauge on the CTPS (Closed TPS) switch. This bulletin defines that procedure

You'll also want to replace those phillips headed bolts with hex headed ones. Using the tip you gave me a few weeks back I removed those phillips headed brass bolts on the FPR and inserted allon headed bolts. Not enough clearance room to mount hex headed bolts in there.
