Default Honda Accord 2002 DX keeps stalling

Okay, 3 months back, my brother gave me his car because he got tired of fixing it. Apparently, he said it never broke down on him, which is a lie, then it broke down on me twice. The first time it broke down on me was because the grounds wire wasn't tightened. Now, the second time, it turned off while I was approaching a stop sign. Ever since that occurred, the car would make a clicking sound only when I would put the car to the on position.
For the 3 past months I have replaced over seven parts of the car. Now, the car starts, but only when putting gas full throttle.

I replaced the following:
Starter
Crankshaft position sensor
Main relay
Circuits
Timing belt ( car was over 100,000 miles)
Fan belt
Distributor
Gas pump
Throttle position sensor (TPS)
Manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP)
Air idle control valve sensor (AIC)
Ground wires
Tubes

I also tried putting in dry gas in the fuel pump to clean out anything dirty overtime.
Also, whenever I would spray idle air cleaner in the intake, RPMS would pass 3000
Car only starts when I put gas all the way down, but it can't pass 3000 RPMS

Honestly, I don't know what else to do. What could be the problem? My car knowledge is limited. Please, help.

Have you adjusted the TPS? That is probably why your car wont start unless you have the gas pedal all the way down.

Check your distributor wiring, it sounds like your car is in limp mode..

How can I adjust the TPS? Also, I have a rand new distributor, I have to travel the wire down to where the intake is then.
