Got the switch all cleaned up, reinstalled and the car really accelerates more smoothly. Unfortunately the idle is low and hunting and adjusting the ECU knob or mixture screw on the TB has no effect; symptom of maladjusted TPS? I think it was correctly adjusted before I took it off and I tried to reinstall it in the same position but... Guess I better try the method on the Pelican site but I don't own an ohm meter. Is this an expensive unit to buy? What is a good brand and where is the best place to get one? Will it need aligator clips on the ends of the wires?

M, an OHM meter is cheap! Get one from radio shack, or sears, or wherever for $15. You really need to have one anyway, for lots of 914 troubleshooting (helps around the house too).
Your idling problem could be associated with your vacuum hoses - how old are they. They can look OK on the outside, but riddled with leaks. If they aren't sound, and the connections are stable, you have "hunting" problems with the idle.
The TPS is such as simple thing to adjust. You've probably done it correctly if it's running that well.
914 fuel injection is sooo simple! So long as you have minot adjustments made, and the vacuum lines working properly, you shouldn't need to touch the TB adjustment.
I think you have some vacuum hoses that need to go.
