Ok, you've got to be more precise and a little less mysterious. I own an OBD2 scan tool, and I don't remember ever seeing a code that describes the tps as being "stuck closed".
First, what "code" did you actually get, and second, how do/did you do this tps "adjustment" exactly.
You've probably just missed engaging the tang on the throttle shaft with the tps is all! You'll have to remove and re-install it, and then ideally check it with a meter (set to ohms) before ultimately plugging it back in.
Technically, you can even check the tps for an rough idea of it's "range" or working continuity while it's off the vehicle by the way.
Don't play with the idle just yet either, lets correct the one thing that we know is screwed up first, before we "fix" anything else.
I know you remember what happened to the last guy got to "guessing" and "adjusting stuff" too fast and without a clue...that ended up turning into "stupid aspires" and "stupid guys on the forum".
The real beauty of that situation is, that's not just "a workin on the aspire" deal you're seeing there, that's actually a chosen or "adopted work-style", that's sure to yield a lifetime of misery.

Learn to shoot trouble in a linear way, be more systematic by correcting/checking/verifing one system before moving onto the next, resist jumping around, back and forth!

The precision is the religion for me!
