isnt there a tps setting with a little arrow angled up and to the right or something like that?

Just what I was thinking, you might have it reversed.

Here's a link to the manual that will tell you how to recalibrate it

damn thats whack, i must have been pissed cause thats the same pdf. i have saved lol i had it the whole time but looked past it, it say if your throttle iv reading 1-5 v~ at idle then it need to be pointing downward to the right not upward and to the right ... just must not have saved it cause i know i tried that once so now im going to go reset it and then turn the key off after i reset it

Honda TPS gets the "arrow up and to the right" setting.

wrong
the book says exactly what i said if its reading 1-5 volts with the key on it needs to be down and to the right, it says not all tps's are the same, some go off resistance not pull

My friend's car was doing the same thing when we put an AFC in it to run VTEC, never bothered to ---- with it since the AFC didn't fix the VTEC problem.

I noticed on my old z6 the throttle setting was pointing up on the afc. When I swapped in my b18, it was backwards all of a sudden. Even my b16 read it backwards, just like the problem you're having...so I switched the tps wires around so it read correctly.

Yeah. It threw me off at first because I had already swapped them the year before for my mpfi swap, so I knew I had it right, but the only way the car ran with the b18 and b16 was with the throttle setting inverted.
