bad throttle position sensor?
i bought a 94 mustang gt (5.0) BONE STOCK NOTHING AFTERMARKET. it had a bad transmission (aode) no third gear needed to be rebuilt. so i swaped out for one i found on craigslist for 100.00 bucks with a torq convertor off a v6 3.8 i read it has been done many times sucessfully. i went through it as much as i could flushed everthing new fluid filter seals ect. it works great except when i get on it a little. at 60+% throttle it stops accelerating and hangs on to one position of rpms. like 2,000 rpms or sometimes 2500 rpms, and when it does this it will flutter just a little. if i let of the throttle and get back on it a little it will backfire and the act normal again. i thought it might be a throttle position sensor. but that doesnt add up 100% in my mind. also it will throw up a check engine light so i try to pull over real fast to check it on my code reader but it goes off before i get to it every time. it only stays on for like 5seconds. what chould it be? it will acellerate gradualy great. but all at once it wont do it. i have noticed that it is much more sensitive to doing this when it has been driven steadily for awhile.
thanks for reading any advise is very helpfull i'm stumped.

i cut the cats off and cashed them in. i replaced it and reused the H pipe. it ran the same way with the cats as it does now without the cats just a little louder. not a bad idea.

LIAR? bone stock to me means added nothing aftermarket nor swaped out anything for aftermarket. that is without exception the only thing i have done. it of course does not have rear o2 sensors thats why i did it. the car dont now i did it. and it did the same without the cats as it did with the cats. i'm sorry i didnt honestly think that counted.
