i found it easier to remove the throttle body to access the tps sensor. the screws can be somewhat difficult to loosen due to corrosion and position of the sensor.
Check the throttle position sensor

There is a problem with the throttle posistion sensor
i think, but don't hold me to this, on the driverside just below the air filter box. postioned to the torqconverter case next to the tranny. u can see a throttle cable attached to this position sensor if i am not mistaking this to a taurus...
Check out the related link for a video on how to replace a crankshaft position on a Ford Focus SE.
the reason the throttle would be sticking on your focus is that it (the actual unit) could be dirty. or the throttle cable could have dirt in its casing. what you need too do is remove the throttle cable and spray engine degreaser in the casing and hang it up too let the dirt and grime drip from it. be sure to use wd-40 to relubricate the cable. now as of the throttle body do the same thing. but use a non abrasive cloth and wipe the unit clean. make sure there is no dirt in any small cracks or crevises.
typically they are located on the air intake connected at the throttle body
the crank position sensor sends info to the ecu for position of the crankshaft in order to fire the correct amount of fuel and when to send the spark to the sparking pulg.the engine will not start.you can find the sensor mid engine near the crank.
Right where the engine and tranny are bolted together
