It could be....but then it might not be. Check the voltage.

TPS wouldnt cause a misfire though itd cause you to have no throttle.

im dealing with a misfiring issue right now too.

but id check your coil and your alternator make sure its putting out the right voltage providing the ignition with the proper amount of current to supply spark.
