He even touched the TPS but he called it a MAF sensor, lol. This guy does not know what he's talking about. I'm taking it to a real mechanic tomorrow guys. Thanks for all the help. I'll let you guys know what it was, when I find out.

The way that it was explained to me is that the TPS and MAF sensor is all in the same housing on the end of the throttle body. Maybe I am wrong?

Well it passed inspection at my mechanics yesterday. I took it back to the smog place and failed again, lol. My tags expire on the 4th. My mechanic is not licensed to give read outs but uses his machine to test and tune cars. I will take her to another smog place and have her passed there. Thanks for all your help fellas.

Replace your O2, cap, rotor, wires, plugs, airfilter(or clean it if its K&N), and change the oil then go back you should have no problem passing.

Air filter is clean; O2 sensors changed 9 months ago; oil changed 1 month ago; cap, rotor, wires, and plugs changed 10 months ago.
