Throttle position sensor issues? What kind of symptoms would I have if the throttle position sensor were failing? I am having a hesitation and sometimes some popping or backfiring when changing throttle position, but if I get on it hard it clears up. Can this be caused by the TPS?

are you throwing a code....maybe its 02 sensor, or could be a plug wire that has worked itself loose......is the car bad or jus sometimes...going full throttle completely clears it up??? does the car seem like itself same speed and pwoer or does it feel like its lost power ?

Already replaced both O2s. At constant speeds or WOT the problem goes away. It only really happens during slight increases in throttle and will clear up if you really get on it.
