    Ok, to check a TPS set your DVOM to the Ohms setting, if its auto ranging then leave it alone from there if not then set it at 200 Ohms to start. With the throttle closed check the resistance across signal (should be a white wire) and ground (black).

    Let me know what the reading is.

    I checked for all vaccum I made some stuff and sprayed on all vaccum lines exhaust intake,cruise control vaccum throttle body,and fuel injectors while running the engine and listened for it to idle up(change idle spped) and no luck. I think I'm pretty sure I have no vaccum leakes. I reset the battery and I ran it for about 30 miles,no code 170 yet. I put new header on because my stock had a hole in it. could that have been the culprit. Its idleing around 750-800.

    my car idles right around there with out the A/C on (give or take a few rpm lol) but thats pretty close. when the A/C clutch Kicks on, the rpm drops for a sec, then the ECU compensates for the A/C being on and raise's the idle. but that happens real quickly and is usually a smooth transistion on or off. if you want to check the tps do what 6G72 said and report back to us and im sure one of us can compare with you. or check the specs.

    I saw a black wire,yellow with a red stripe.and two green wires,one with a white stripe and I did'nt get no reading just 0 on my auto ranging dvom. The car was not running and the throttle plate was closed. I tried all of them with the black ground and no luck.
