The TPS is used by the vehicles ECM for power enrichment,and idle stability when you remoce the sensor connector the ECM uses a substitute value so you can drive the vehicle. So the TPS is not the problem here You are basically suffering from a vehicle lean condition or false air. Removing the TPS connection only enrichen the car.Trouble shoot the MAF (mass air flow ) this is the one that houses the air filter check the boot going to the intake manifold make sure its not cracked or leaking air giving false air.car chugging when stopped. I have replaced tps but - 2_24_2012_5_22_13_am.gif

What do I need to look at fixing? the car turns over, but does not start...chugging sound when turning the key.

is it turning over fast. If trying to start,chugging then would possibly have code stored in PCM, sounds like TPS, IAC or MAF sensor. It can be hard diagnosing without scanning to get a starting point to start at.

2006 mazda 6 bucking when accelerating

Hi you need to have a diagnosis on why the engine light was on in the first place. By disconnecting the power source to the onboard computers on connection they have probably come up with a mismatch due to something being outside it's set tolerance. The reason it stops when clutch is depressed is you are removing the load from the engine. A fault code reader needs to be plugged into your vehicle, hopefully the codes will still be there as sometimes they might be removed when power is disconnected. Good luck

Firing problems 2000 honda civic

From easiest to hardest on fixing would be to use fuel cleaner, if that doesn't work then you need to change the fuel filter, if that doesn't work then you need to check your injectors, if it still isn't fixed then you need to pull and clean (and possibly replace) your spark plugs.
