It is too old for a TPS.

Which system is fitted, Continuous Injection System or LH-Jetronic?

New fuel pump, filter etc
Which fuel pump did you replace and what is included in the 'etc'?

Other things to check on the CIS are:
Throttle valves not opening properly.
Control pressure.
Mixture adjustment.

However, I am really curious about the pump.
