I Just took my 2001 Tiburon out for a drive after it sat in my garage for about a month. The idle stays at around 2000 rpms and when driven it bogs down when you put your foot into it. It ran fine a month ago just trying to figure out what could go bad to cause this.

any help would be great.

Throtle Position Sensor. replace that and it's going to be like new. Could be the MAF sensor. at this point it's hard to tell without codes read, it would help lots!

They won't unless they are Bad codes, on one drive.

Test the TPS, it takes 30 seconds.
