don't mess with the tps. In the last video you had the break booster hose disconected and you were covering the intake.
Connect the booster hose and then try covering the intake. That should make the motor stall completely. If it doesn't stall then you have a vac leak. At that point listen for a hissing sound that shouldn't be there. My guess off the top of my head is either the injectors aren't seated properly or the intake mani isn't torqued down properly. Get a can of carb cleaner and spray it around those areas little by little. If there is a leak the carb cleaner should make the motor stall or the idle should drop for a few moment. I think you have air getting in there causing the idle to be like that...it was a small leak like a drip causing the idle to go up and down but now it's no longer a drip, it's starting to pour in, you dig ? that's step one.

Step 2, if the motor stalls completly when you cover the intake then you might have bigger problems. We'll worry about that later.

questions...

what did you use to clean the AFM ?
and how ?
is that a K&N filter on the end of the intake or a cheapo ?
have you checked for any codes ?
