P0123 would be TP sensor high ,P0122 TP sensor circuit low, P0121 TP sensor range / performance,If the vehicle restart just with starting fluid you have a fuel related issue.Throttle position can cause this, if the TP was bad it would acceleerate and as you try to accelerate it would hesistate and not want to go, You should check the fuel filter remove it check to see if there is any contaminates in there.such as water in the fuel .
