WOOOOW this post has become even dumber.
Turns out there's a tiny metal clip that holds that cable on. I didn't know this, because a friend helped take it apart, and it's not really mentioned and...
Yeah, as I mentioned before, Live Data is working, other numbers moving.
HOWEVER
I have figured out the problem. And it's DUMB.
THE CLIP THAT HOLDS THE CABLE TO THE TPS LITERALLY POPPED...
Thanks, rb. I appreciate the reply! And now comes the part where I have to admit that I'm an absolute rookie when it comes to electrical, so at the risk of sounding like an idiot: I don't know how to...
Welp, thought I had my '08 Uly finally sorted out after a sticky throttle issue. Ended up replacing the whole throttle body with a nice used unit off an '08 firebolt. Pieced it all back together,...
FYI, I'm gonna post this stuff on eBay soon. Shoot me a reasonable offer, I want this stuff outta my garage!
Good question!
When x99raymond asked me about them as a package deal, I poked around eBay but couldn't find anybody selling everything together to make a good comparison. There were two examples...

Thanks guys. PM sent to x99raymond. njloco, I'll try to get my **** together today and post up the photos and make some price guesstimates!
I've decided it's time to move on from the Uly, and I have some extra new and used parts. Figured I'd throw them on here before offering them to the unwashed eBay masses! I'll add photos (and...
Awesome info, thanks! I didn't know about the max-throttle adjuster, I'm guessing an '08 Uly would have that if it's on later models, so I'll have to look. It does seem to happen mostly at really...
Thanks for the reply, BuellyBagger. My Uly is an '08 with about 45k on it.
We did unhook the cables, though now I feel like I should probably do that again just to confirm that they were indeed...
Hey all,
I've had a sticky throttle for a while, and after taking the throttle grip apart, lubing cables, etc etc, it seems like the culprit is probably the butterfly valve inside the the throttle...
I quickly attempted a TPS reset a few months back, but I guess I was reading some bad instructions because I got confused and couldn't figure out if I did it correctly. I'll have to revisit that now...
Thanks for the info guys. Looks like I've got some decisions to make. Or maybe I just need to buy all of this stuff!
Thumpin, I think I mightve accidentally gave your comment a thumbs down! My bad, trying to view on my phone with a case of fat thumbs!
So 2hy, what did you end up finally doing when you were in my shoes? You had pinging issues as well? What was your solution?
Gotcha, Thumpin. I just wanted to make sure that the general consensus is that it's an ECM/fuel mapping related issue and not some other cause that I don't know about.
Sounds like my options are...
Wow, yeah...this is going to be a real sunnovabitch, isn't it? Heh. *GULP*
Thanks for the reply Thumpin. There's a lot of info there...I guess the one question I'm really trying to find a straight answer to first is:
Can I use Tuner Pro and/or ECMSPY on my stock ecm unit...
