My '99 Vstar 1100 has started to run rough at lower RPMs. Sounds as though
it's dropping spark every once in a while. I replaced the plugs, but the
problem is still there. When I get up past 3,000 RPM, the problem seems to
go away. Has anyone had problems like this? Thanks.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
Before adjusting the throttle position sensor,
the engine idling speed should be properly adjusted.
1. Inspect:
throttle position sensor
a. Disconnect the throttle position sensor coupler.
b. Connect the pocket tester (W 1k) to the
throttle position sensor.
Tester positive lead blue 1
Tester negative lead black 2
c. Check the throttle position sensor resistance
"R1".
Out of specification Replace the throttle
position sensor.
Throttle position sensor
resistance "R1"
4 6 kW at 20C (68F)
(blue - black)
d. Connect the pocket tester (W 1k) to the
throttle position sensor.
Tester positive lead yellow 3
Tester negative lead black 2
e. While slowly opening the throttle, check that
the throttle position sensor resistance "R2" is
within the specified range.
Out of specification Replace the throttle
position sensor.
Throttle position sensor
resistance "R2"
0.56 0.84 kW to 3.01
4.51 kW at 20C (68F)
(yellow - black)
2. Adjust:
throttle position sensor angle
a. Loosen the throttle position sensor screws
1 .
b. Turn the throttle position sensor in direction
a or b until the specified closed-throttle resistance
is indicated on the pocket tester.
