Looks like the pesky TCS is acting up on my 93 9000CSET. I make a right
turn, shifted to 2nd and suddenly no power. Engine at 1000rpm but felt like
I was in 5th gear. Had to juggle gas & clutch to get any forward motion.
Pulled over, turned off engine, restarted, everything was normal. Mechanic
suggests TCS. I had the TCS cut off switch installed but I have to press it
every time I turn on the engine. Is there a way to turn it off permanently?

It is not our patriotic duty to send children to be butchered & slaughtered
& to butcher & slaughter others every time a general or a politician gets a
hardon for a war. Rather, it is our patriotic duty to demand the highest
burden of proof to justify war. It is also our patriotic duty to hold
treasonous, corporate whore, war criminals accountable for their actions.

Well, it turns out it was the throttle, not the TCS. About $400. used
installed.

And you're sure that a re-alignment of the TCS wouldn't have done the trick?
