I have a 2000 jeep wrangler with a new rebiult motor. I seem to have no top end power when passing or on hills. I hooked to a computer and I am showing 14% throttle at idle and 72% at wide open throttle. I am only showing 66% wide open throttle on hills. Is this normal? If not, would you suspect the an issue with the tps? Thanks.

That doesn't sound normal. And yes, the TPS could be the issue. Check that first.
