how to set tbs?
I am fighting bogging issues and have been searching TPS threads and came across the reset ecu topic. For what it is worth - I had a mechanic tell me to reset the ECU by disconnecting both + and - terminals from the battery and connecting them together for 5 min. This was for a SLAAB 900 n/a (btw - DON'T EVER BUY A SAAB- you can sneeze in the car and it will throw a CEL, but I digress.)
I wonder if this would work on our cars to reset the ecu or if it would damage anything?

I used to be full, but I'm finally MT !!
basically what you're doing when you do that is shorting the electrical circuit. Personally....I wouldn't want to do that. It may cause a spike through the system, which might not be good for things. Use a resistor as the bridge between the two terminals. Or simply disconnect the neg terminal and leave the door open. The draw from the door light will suck the juice out of the ECU's reserve power.
