how do you change TPS sensors, mine are rivveted on my d15 and my d 16 throttle bodies.

im lost cause in "pills" write up on testing tps he says rotate it till you see 0.5 V. well how the heck do you rotate it? and how do you change it

theyre not rivets they are screws. take a pair of vice grips and turn them they will come off and then you replace them with regular screws and then adjust it

exactly, just try to get some vice grips on there. If you can't, grind the high part off and it will let you pull the sensor off. Then you will def. be able to get vice grips on there. pull the rest of the stud out and replace with screws.
