working on a 98 optimax 135 Mariner and it seems to work great other than once in a while it will completely stall on me. I took it to the dealer and they hooked it up to the computer and it comes up as the TPS sensor. I have had it to 3 seperate dealers and they all say the same thing but it still does it after they make an adjustment on it, I was wondering if anyone has similar problems, It will work great for a day or a week then all of a sudden it happens again, any help is appreciated.

my does this in rough waters at WOT.
it may or may not alarm out prior to shut down but it does go into low idle mode prior to stalling completely.

A TPS failure on the Opti's, is serviced by replacement, not adjustment.
