Our blazer was running pretty rough, so we had her checked out - new muffler, 'tune-up,' oil change (all the basics and a little more.)

The check engine light has been on as long as I can remember. We replaced the throttle position(ing) sensor, because that's what AutoZone told us to do. The light is still on, still saying it's reading an error on the sensor.

The only symptom she's still having is hesitation during acceleration. Just the sensor again? Maybe a tranny flush? What do you think?
