WOT not WOT ?

[F3600]

Here the situation my car as no WOT. Well when i press the gaz pedal to the floor , its not like im getting on it very much. I can have the same power if i only push halfway the pedal .. i dont know if this normal, but on my Ka i was feeling it when i was Wide open throttle.

I checked my throttle plate when i was fully pressing the pedal and it was almost fully open.. ( there was a play of 5 MM ).

can this be a problem with the TPS ? or something else ? anywayill wait for any input

thx

I'm not sure but could your timing be off...? Im sure one of the more experienced ( smarter )members will chime in and solve your problem.

No floormats right?

edit: Duuhhh throttle plate rules out moved flormats. :rolleyes I have seen that as the problem that guys will do a lot of engine diagnosis only to find the mat blocking the throttle.

i dont think its the florrmat i touch the pedal stopper when on WOT. When i got my engine tested the TPs with a multimeter and the value seemed alright.

anyway gonna make some other test when i install my Walbroo and my adjustable fuel regulator

Is the KA TPS working fine on CA ? its seems almost the same i have 2 laying around.

I just changed my TPS from a old ka i have laying around i did see a small improvement. Well its was worth the 2 minute install.

I have also heard about swapping for a bigger throtle body .. I got one from a Ka .. Is there anything to be concerned about swapping these?

feel free to give your input, im gonna search too

thx ! for you help

* i need a Ka24DE throttle body i got 2 Ka24E... too bad

Besides porting the intake to match the throttle body, i dont think there should be any worries. There was a post about it a while back stating everything to be done including posting pics of some ca throttle bodies and ka ones side by side. Come to think about it I think you have to block something off on the ka throttle body, but cant remember what.
