    Sharing my misfortune.... Thought my Tps wasn't working due to running issues. Checking a tps is painful to get good connection where the tps is on the throttle body. I was using a cheap multimeter that had hopeless ohm readings (found out after upgrading to e better multimeter) .... Ordered a new tps and didn't solve the issues. Fault finding and eventually found the wires about two inches from the tps had hardened because of heat and cracked / broken.

    Tony can you describe your running issues.  Might be helpful for others.

    My issues.... well where to start when you buy a cheap MR2... 
    Trying to fault find for rough idling and general lack of performance issues when driving (intermittently).
    Checked basics for boost leaks, cleaned throttle body, full service and checked timing.
    Checked ECU inputs that assist to calculate fuel; Check AFM and set factory screw. TPS replaced. 
    Found TPS wiring broken when replacing TPS, wires were hard, outer crumbling, wire broken / not in connector.  Got a new TPS Plug and wires from the USA (cheap - sellers on ebay - Toyota TPS Plug).
