Is your car modded or stock? If so, what mods? I hate to ask this but are you sure you are unplugging the tps?

If the DME loses a reference signal it can cause the bucking and backfiring. Check to be sure that the shielded cable on the harness is not melting through in any places.

The car has an intake a cat delete and some Vertex Auto chips. I want some maxchips but that'll have to wait. All installed by the previous owner. Yes I am 100% sure I am unpluggin the TPS. The plug that comes out from the side of the TB.

Well it drives just fine without it plugged in. Thats what leads me to believe that it is busted. That would cause my random fuel cut.
