Started experiencing a rough idle, then occasional chugging until engine was warm. Though is was related to moisture in gas tank, but no luck with treating it.

Now... when its cold and starting won't keep the idle, black residue out exhaust and if you try to drive will chug. Code reader is 22 for TPS.

How do you know the fix and is there something else to look for.
