Help with 86 4runner 22RE

[prodigy2k7]

I havent done any work in a few months, I last did new umm, forgot what its called, timing chain cover, new timing chain and new camshaft/springs/valves/head, and new head gasket. I could never actually find the correct timing. The timing of when it runs best is off the charts (Not on the crank pulley)... Its advanced so much its almost hard to see the marking...

Also, I think my TPS is bad, when I had to put a new head on, I had to take the EFI/air infake off, therfore removing the TPS. I kidna just stuck it back on...

There is an adjustment for the TPS, dunno how to adjust it...

Also I never replaced the TPS yet in the 1.5 years ive had it...

Sometimes my car slows down in idle about 100-200RPMs when I turn my heater on, why?

My air conditioner, how do I check the level of the coolant/liquid? My airconditioner engaged but blows luke warm (almost cool) air...

I noticed one day months ago that my a/c was blowing hot air...I thought it was broken, but now it blows ... room temperture air...

Sorry for bad english.

Edit: I know its not good practie, but my 22RE used to go to 6,000 RPMs in first gear if I wanted to...but now in first i can barely get to 4,000rpms, it just sounds different slightly and acceleration in rpms isnt as fast... as it used to be...

Most likely, either the Timing Chain was installed off a tooth (or 2), or the distributor was re-installed off a tooth (or 2).

Yes there is an adjustment procedure, do some SEARCHing for a Factory Service Manual and you'll find that and a whole lot more info on that and other subjects. You really shouldn't need to replace the TPS unless it dies.

It's hot? tired? IDFK

You need to get a gauge that measures the pressure of the R12/R134 in the AC system. About $20 US.Then maybe some leak checking stuff.
