Phil, I'm told for automatics you can't replace just the throttle position sensor (TPS) inside the electronic throttle body (ETB). I had persistent TCS LH problems in my car (same as yours) even after replacing TCS safety valve, cleaning ETB with gunk cleaner, cleaned as much of all the wiring contacts related to TCS. Still got LH whenever I throttled > 40% of the pedal travel especially on inclines.
Finally a competent indy experimented by putting in a brand new ETB and voila, all LH symptoms gone no matter how hard we drove it everywhichway. Since then it's been 4 full months of LH-free driving for me : )
Mind you the new ETB cost me US$650 part alone, and about 1/2 hr labor. Make sure your indie or dealer calibrate the whole electronic throttle control/TCS/ABS system before you eagerly drive off.
See Quasi's site for more details.
