1st do a TPS reset. If that doesn't cure it, check for codes. It may or may not be the TPS.

Disconnect the batteries for a few minutes. Reconnect them then with the key in the run position slowly push the peddle to the floor and slowly release it. You'll find the TPA referred to as the APPS, accelerator peddle position sensor.
