Worn out TPS - video example
I floored it 3 times. You can see the throttle by watching the boost gauge at the lower left.
Drop outs in the TPS sweep were causing fuel cuts (big time).

1.3L is not that small
good info... try putting up the words above the rpm guage... the words and video quality makes it hard to see where exactly the needle is going... however it is visible...

The TPS brackets are different, but you can swap the black resistor & plunger assembly.
It is held to the bracket by a thin metal cover whose tabs can be bent to remove it.

When I replaced the TPS, the cuts immediately cleared up.
