I can't seem to find the post where I was describing the problem I was having.

To summarize:
Ever since I installed my OzFlow 60mm BBTB the car would start hesitating at under 20 MPH. It would be going fine and all of a sudden there seemed to be a flat spot in the throttle.

Things I did to try to fix it:
Tightened TPS - No Change
Adjusted throttle cable - Better throttle response, but no change
Adjusted Idle - No Change
Checked for Vacume leaks - None
Replaced Plugs, Wires, and Coil - Needed to be done anyways, did not fix problem

What Fixed it:
Removed TPS while car was idling, reinstalled it by tightening top screw down, then bottom screw while holding the TPS tightly in place.

I was not able to drive smoothly under 20 MPH for the past three months or so. Yes, traffic sucked. After this fix I was able to drive from my house down to the beach at 5-15mph. The beach is about .5 miles away. Runs like a champ now.

Weird. Hopefully the problem will be fixed by doing what you did.

If it happens again, just take everything apart (TB, sensor, cable) and tighten it up agian.

Drove it all the way to work with no hesitation or stuttering. I do need to readjust my idle though, somehow I set it too high last night.

I backed off my idle screw all the way to the point where it's not being used and adusted the throttle cable from there.
