What exactly did the mechanic fix, that will give us a better idea of what he might not have tightened. Sounds like a vacuum leak to me. Also could be a bad TPS. Unplug it and go drive it and see if it acts the same.

I thought they deleted that hose?

That did nothing more that a lame attempt to keep dust from the belt under the cover from accumlating!
