car sputters and shuts off
89 firebird 305 tbi
at a certain throttle position the car sputters and shuts off. it feels like the injectors are not getting electricity
I have replaced the tps twice in 5 months, I am almost positive this is not the problem
if I bury the throttle or let off the problem goes away- ----
any other places to look or suggestions on what to do

Sounds to me like dieseling... which usually means either your running lean (why I suggested the fuel system cleaner and filter) or it means your timing is too high.
Whats your idle speed?
