I had the same problem when i got mine ported. It could be that the tb was over ported. If the opening around the blade is too big it will cause a high idle.

there is an idle adjustment screw under your throttle cable that you can adjust down to compensate for the over ported throttle body.

but the car seems to idle normal at start but maybe 5 out of 10 times it will hold the idle after coming to a stop...

do you guys know what that metal bevel shaped thing is in the tps sensor on the shaft? cus when i pulled it out it was all bent!!i tried to fix it but idkkk

Yea it falls down really slowly will hang in a spot for a bit and eventually drops to normal

Sounds like the same thing my car was doing. I contacted the guy who ported my TB and he swapped it out for a new one. Once i got my new one it ran perfect. Try holing your TB up to the light and it you see large cracks between the body and the blade it might be over ported.

Well I tried everything and still no luck I tried to adjust the blade but it didnt help.. I even tried to start it without the tps on and still it sticks....ANd It only sticks with the car running..

did the guy half shaft it?

i am sure he did, he did not do everything... there is one thing you need to do when the half shaft is done so it will not stick
