Will the throttle control sensor being faulty cause the car to run rough on a 1994 1600 mivec

This is complex to diagnose. Here are possibilities:

Here are some possible causes and solutions:

Fuel pump relay: A faulty fuel pump relay can cause the fuel pump to stop working intermittently, which can cause the engine to stall. You can check the fuel pump relay by swapping it with another relay of the same type in the fuse box. If the problem goes away, then the relay was the issue. If not, then you can move on to the next possible cause.

Clogged fuel filter: A clogged fuel filter can restrict the flow of fuel to the engine, which can cause the engine to stall. You can check the fuel filter by removing it and blowing air through it. If there is no resistance, then the filter is not clogged. If there is resistance, then you should replace the filter.

Vacuum leak: A vacuum leak can cause the engine to run lean, which can cause the engine to stall. You can check for vacuum leaks by spraying carburetor cleaner around the intake manifold, throttle body, and vacuum lines while the engine is running. If the engine RPMs increase, then there is a vacuum leak.

Faulty idle air control valve: A faulty idle air control valve can cause the engine to stall at idle. You can check the idle air control valve by removing it and cleaning it with carburetor cleaner. If the problem persists, then you should replace the valve.

Faulty throttle position sensor: A faulty throttle position sensor can cause the engine to stall when the throttle is opened. You can check the throttle position sensor by using a multimeter to measure the resistance across the sensor terminals. If the resistance is not within the specified range, then you should replace the sensor.

Faulty mass airflow sensor: A faulty mass airflow sensor can cause the engine to stall when the throttle is opened. You mentioned that you already changed the MAF, but it's possible that the new MAF is also faulty. You can check the MAF by using a multimeter to measure the voltage across the sensor terminals while the engine is running. If the voltage is not within the specified range, then you should replace the sensor.

Faulty ignition coil: A faulty ignition coil can cause the engine to stall when it gets hot. You can check the ignition coil by using a multimeter to measure the resistance across the coil terminals. If the resistance is not within the specified range, then you should replace the coil.

Seafoam is for removing carbon deposits on 2 Stroke engines.
Fuel pumps either work or they don't. They don't 'almost work' and cause an engine to run rough.

You are subscribing to the 'let's try replacing this' method of car repair. It doesn't work and is expensive. You can't guess that maybe the O2 sensors are faulty. You diagnose the DTC trouble codes using a scan tool. That will tell you the state of sensors. If you want the WHOLE story, you buy a $3.5k scan tool computer or call a mobile auto electrician.

Things you can try for free. Clean the Throttle Body and MAF, clean the IAC (idle air control).

without dealing with this issue hands on ..almost impossible ...but I will give you a few areas to look at ..faulty throttle positchion sensor ..in most cases will cause rough or erratic idle ....idle air control valve ..will also cause this ...faulty engine temp sensor ..dead or dirty injector ..dead oxygen sensor .bad intake gasket .dirty throttle body ...list goes on and on ...

first code it's P0320 Possible causes
- Faulty Ignition/Distributor engine speed sensor
- Faulty Crankshaft Position sensor
- Ignition/Distributor engine speed sensor harness is open or shorted
- Ignition/Distributor engine speed sensor circuit poor electrical connection
- Low battery charge
- Faulty Engine Control Module (ECM)

2- P0750 Possible causes
- Low transmission fluid level
- Dirty transmission fluid
- Faulty shift solenoid 1 valve
- Shift solenoid 1 valve harness or connectors
- Shift solenoid 1 valve circuit is open or shorted

3- P0120 Possible causes
- Faulty Throttle Position Sensor
- Throttle Position Sensor circuit is open or shorted
- Throttle Position Sensor poor electrical connection

4- P0220 Possible causes
- Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) harness is open or shorted
- Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) circuit poor electrical connection
- Faulty Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)
- Fault Electric Throttle Control Actuator (or Throttle Body Motor)
- Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APP)

This sensor basically sends info to the car's computer so when it is faulty it means you won't know the position of your car's throttle, the fuel, or engine's performance so you have to get it fixed because it sometimes gets rusty and thus needs to be cleaned up.

P0068 Symptoms - Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Lack/Loss of power
- Engine rough idle Possible causes - Large vacuum leak
- Leaking air duct system
- Mass Air Flow (MAF) poor electrcial connection
- Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) poor electrcial connection
- Faulty Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor
- Faulty Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor
- TP sensor not seated properly.
- Faulty Throttle Position (TP) sensor.
- Dirty throttle body
When is the code detected? The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors operation rationality check by comparing sensed throttle position to mass air flow readings
P0068 DODGE Description The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors a vehicle operation rationality check by comparing Throttle Position (TP) to Mass Air Flow (MAF) readings. If, during a self-test, the comparison of the TP sensor and MAF sensor readings are not consistent with the calibrated load values, the test fails and a diagnostic trouble code is stored in continuous memory.

Try a few if these ideas...

Your car has serious issues, far above a simple forum like this one. My guess is that your throttle body assembly is clogged with soot. It will have to be be removed and the TPS and Idle control valve removed. The Throttle Position Sensor could be your problem, if the spring is broken... this is uncommon but possible. The throttle body will have to be cleaned, soaked over night in gallon container of choke and throttle body cleaner. It is easy to remove, just be careful with the electrical connectors to the sensors. A simple 3/8 in racket set is all you will need. (Go to an Autozone and have them run a free diagnostic on your car's computer and they will give you a free print-out and tell you which parts are faulty, first thing.) A faulty Idle control valve with cause the rough idling, don't try to clean it... just get a new one, if it's sooted up.
