Nice going! You're ahead of me on that TPS. I never autopsied one. But I'll bet the micro-switch is on the idle end. The other contact is the WOT indication to the ECU. I've got a couple of old ones around and can't hear the click unless I have it up to my ear in a quiet room.

That Bentley spec of 5* seems a bit low. I guess the ECU can lengthen the injector pulses enough to handle starting down to that point.

Glad to hear you're making progress.
