'84 944 acceleration problems

What would cause my car to only accelerate to 1200 rpm or 15mph, although the idle is fine. I had to swerve left-right-left, and the power would come back on fully,for a short time then cut out again. The car has very low miles.

It is the throttle position switch. black box on the side of the throttle body (on the NA's it is on the underside).
