You might try pulling yours off and spraying it with cleaner. That cleaner sure penetrates and identifies the leaks. I used Radio Shack contact cleaner. Just a thought.

There's a TPS for sale on ebay right now. New ones are pretty expensive ($150). Or, you could borrow my old TPS and try it.

i already cleaned it like 4 times in the past 6 months. it don't leak the cleaner out at all. i'm the one bidding on that tps right now
