What I mean by touchy is it seems it is either all the way on or all the way off theres hardly any in between. The IAB has been replaced. Could I need a new TPS or could my O2 sensors be to blame? Or could it just be the throttle cable? Any help? Thanks in Advance.

I'd inspect the throttle body first for build up and then the cable as long as your basic tune up is in newer condition.

AOD or 5 speed?
When m TV cable came off the AOD, the throttle was super-touchy until I realized it wouldn't downshift and re-attached it.
If it's AOD, make sure the TV's not broken, or fell off, at the tranny or the TB
