When my TPS was bad, my car used to do crazy stuff like that. It's probably not the case with your car, but it could be.

I would say TPS. I had the same thing happen to me too. You need to check your codes, regardless though. That will tell you what, if any, sensors went bad.

Does it start at a particular RPM? Pull the ECU error codes and see if it gives anything.
