Thumbs up

My 90 vert has a slight malfunction. The engine light comes on when the car is at idle but if you put a little pressure on the gas pedal it goes out . Also sometimes while you are driving it and its in overdrive it will surge , but not always. It will however surge when you first crank it in the mornings till it warms up. I have just replaced alot of stuff on the car and I am wondering if it is the tps needing adjusting. It has been replaced also. Thank you Paul
