Now how do you use this damn thing? Glad you asked!

Connect the sensor harness and turn the key to on, measure voltage at red, black and blue with the throttle plates closed. Write these numbers down and cross reference with the set values for each number you're givin for red vs blue. Do the same with the throttle plates open and adjust accordingly by the two 8mm nuts on the TPS sensor. This procedure is hardly difficult but does leave plenty of room for error if done incorrectly.

Here are the shop manual scan:
