Non adjustable TPS?

I was going to mess with the TPS on my bike, and find that it is non adjustable.. There are some odd anti tamper screws... Is this on certain years only? Maybe just CA models? I am going to remove them and put in some regular screws... I just thought it was odd...

They're all that way. The factory uses shear screws when installing. Most take a Dremel or similar device to slot the existing screws (pictured). Some use the same screws to secure when done, some of us replace them with phillips or Allen head screws

You might want to sync your carbs and set idle before setting the TPS as throttle position has a direct effect on TPS readings.

In my 93 5.0, I experience had motor difficulties that lead me to beleive I have an awful or inappropriately changed choke position sensor. I took it to my companion, a repairman with a little shop, and he said that my sensor was not customizable. He said I should simply purchase another one. He has a F-150 with a 5.0 in it, and he said he needed to do something very similar. He said some are movable, some aren't. I thought all EFI 5.0 horses had a flexible TPS.
