How can you reposition the sensor? It should be fix (at least in the 98 TB).
Have you checked the cable from the cruise control unit? It may be too tight.
How much does it show at WOT?

Mine show 4% when closed and 70% at WOT. I had water in the sensor! Probably from some wild engine cleaning or more probably from the water/alcohol injection.

you can loosen the sensor and scrape of some of the positioning pin to move it. my tps was reading 2% since i had to adjust the tb to open more. the damn reset didnt help either. everything is good but i think the problem could be the voltage going back and forth from .55 to .57 could be causing this, just saw that in a log. wot is 100% and 4.6 or so volts. no throttle goes between 0 and 1 %
