Thoughts, Ideas, or Input?

I am experiencing something odd... I think its probably the TPS... under light acceleration the car has a minor stutter.. press the pedal harder it goes away.. on occasion while cruising at Fwy speed the stutter appears.. again apply more throttle it goes away (also letting off the gas will affect it) at first I was freaking out about possible tranny issue but a gentle life and a maintenance history (beautiful clear pink tranny fluid too!) point elsewhere.. I just had the car serviced at my local Big O Tire, where they claim to have checked the all the fluids, rotated/balanced the tires (while reversing my backward rims issue) but my confidence level in any "mechanic" at any grease monkey oil change type place is quite low.. (i know they lied and didnt balance my tires) SO... any thoughts?... anyone have a spare TPS? .. sorry for the long post...

Refer to the "how to" section for advice on testing and setting the TPS.
