Hi Mate
With engine off, you need to disconnect the TPS connector located at the throttle body.Measure and record resistance between terminals 2 and 3
with throttle fully closed.Measure and record resistance between terminals 2 and 4 with throttle fully closed , then with throttle fully open
terms 2/3 sould be 12000 and same for 2/4
Throttle fully closed between 10,000 and 12 000.
Throttle fully open between 3000 /5000.
i dont know the feeler guage setting

Put the TPS back on correctly, turn on the key and measure the voltage at the centre wire by backprobing with the connector plugged in. Rotate the TPS until it shows 0.4v. If there is no voltage present then check the top wire for voltage, it should have 5v when the key is on.
The 4th wire on a gen 1 is the idle switch, gen 2 does not use this and the polarity is also reversed on gen 2.

Who would like to kick me in the but ,, the Subi runs sweet as now , I didnt notice that I had knocked of one of the vacume hoses and of course you know how engines hate that .
Mind you had I fixed it properly then the Lib wouldnt have a nice set of RS mags on it now, Deb took it down to Swan Subaru this morning and they spotted the hose and then she went in to their showroom and bought the mags , looks heaps better than the crappy wheel covers that were on there .
Thanks again guys for the help as well.
