Possible vacum leak.

They are the same exact plugs that I had in before, where should I check for a vacuum leak?

Being the same plugs don't mean squat about gap. All it takes is one little bump to throw it off. Every one of the eight NGKs I put in my car had a diff gap out of the box.

Do you think it could be the TPS? Next time it does it shut the car off. My tps is starting to go and when it starts acting funny and I shut it off and start it back up its like it resets or something and it'll run fine.
