Need help with codes!!!

4 DTC's Found:
16505 - Throttle Position Sensor (G69): Implausible Signal
35-10 - - - Intermittent
16487 - MAF Sensor (G70): Signal too High
35-10 - - - Intermittent
17953 - Throttle Valve Controller: Malfunction
35-10 - - - Intermittent
17952 - Throttle Actuation Pot (G187): Signal too Large
35-10 - - - Intermittent

Well I'm guessing it's my throttle body or something. Has anyeone seen these before that could help me out?

Sounds like it :( ... dbl check that you have the ECU connections, the MAS connection and the TB

connection plugged in fully. You had the MAS and ECU disconnected to do the install .. maybe the TB as well??? .. maybe not fully connected?

Likely yes . .there is no 'repair' to the TPS assembly. It bothers me a bit that you also have

a MAS error ...

You and me both :-/

It's really weird. I'll drive down the road and all of a sudden the throttle just doesnt work. I'll hit the pedal and nothing happens, then sometimes it'll just "catch" again and others the car will just lose rpms and stall....NOT FUN ON THE HIGHWAY! Obviously the car is billowing smoke from running rich when this happens.

The reason for the MAF failure....

1)Throttle plate is open so its pulling air
2)The throttle sensor is closed so the car is expecting very low MAF readings

viola, MAF sensor signal to high.
