Is there a work around for setting the tps on a 1998 mariner 175 efi without using the test harness?

Moved to correct forum. Please be sure to provide your engine serial number.
Only correct ways are with the Test Harness or with the Computer Diagnostic System. Some have used jumpers in the connector and connected to them- keep in mind the wire colors there do NOT correspond to the colors mentioned for the test harness.

Which 2 wires do you use to test? There are 3 wires going to tps. 1998 mariner 175 ser number 0g406004 Thanks
Should be the yellowish and blue ones, I do it the same way, sometimes have to try until I get the ones I need, lol.

Yep, what they said. 0.24-0.26 is where I generally set them. Then adjust if needed. Make sure your link 'n synch is all set properly too. That will have a bearing on your sensor setting if your idle stop isn't properly set and the roller isn't lined up how it should be on the cam.

OK I CHECKED THE SETTING AND IT WAS ABOUT .180 SO I BUMPED IT UP TO ABOUT .255. HOPE THIS HELPS THE COLD START. WILL REPORT BACK WHEN TEMPS DROP.
