in relevance with the jackal, i have the same drama as him, betweenabout 2k-3krpm it feels like it has no power but if i go flatout on the accel it doesnt have this flat spot, its only happening between 1/4-1/2 throttle, worth replacing the tps?

i know for a fact that my 02 sensor is a working item, on the account that my air/fuel mixture meter is working and its a brand new sensor, so id say its more than likely going to be the tps, ill change it today and let you guys know

I just changed my O2 sensor. Picked it up for $45 trade from Repco. The old one came out easy as which I was not expecting and perhaps had something to do with poor fuel economy. I mean I was expecting to have to put a samson bar on the spanner but it just undid and was just over finger tight I reckon.
Now how do I make the computer dump it's memory.

Mate just disconnect the battery for a few hours. Have a search around the forums on relearn procedures, there's a good one in the ECU forum somewhere.... posted by Jose IIRC...
