This would be especially good during a high rpm event. There are various scanners that can look at TPS, the most cost effective (around $40) being the BT dongle/Android apps. Les can tell you which ones report this parameter. The usual suspects:

Car Gauge Pro
Car Diagnostic Pro
Torque Pro
Dash Command

There is also a comprehensive hardware solution if you are willing to cough up $150: Vident ilink 400. Above that are the stupid expensive scanners (ask me how I know) like Tech 2, Snap On, etc.

What model Autel do you have? Also, sometimes when a PID doesn't seem to be available when you enter your VIN or model specific into the scanner you can find it by selecting instead "Generic OBD" and looking at the Mode $6 data.
