i used my volt meter and checked the tps.it showe fine, but does it mean it could be bad anyway.
 






It's saying that your throttle position sensor (TPS) and your mass air-flow sensor (MAF) sensors are not functioning in coordination, which they must do and report their readings back to the PCM. Either could be bad or perhaps their electrical connections/wires are not making a good contact.

As you've just done a bunch of work on your engine you may have forgotten to reconnect something or disturbed a connection.
 






I will double check everything Monday. Thanks for the reply, but should i replce doth of them or just the tps?

I won't replace either of them w/out testing them first. You didn't have the TDC before doing the repairs you made, correct?
 






Yes i had the codes before the repairs. Thats why I done the repairs. I tested them both and they are good. Even replaced the MAF and TPS with known good ones and still get the codes. Any help
