Accellerator sensor

Has anyone changed a accelerator sensor? I saw a write up how to clean one but this is not my problem. Would you buy a used one from a dismantler or only a new one? Getting a reoccurring fault that I can rest but it comes right back 10 to 15 miles. Power cycles give a better result but it returns in a week or 2.

At this point I have no power loss but it can not blip the throttle downshifting on the brake. I had this in the summer and thought I had a loose connection or heat issue but I can't get it to go away now. I added a fan that got rid of the heat problem. The connection on throttle body and MAF Check out OK and show good on Durametrics.
