    check all the sensors for oil/dirt

    check your intake gasket, mine was all tore back when i replaced my tb

    if it still does it, take off your tb, and hold it up to a light and see if you can see any light around the blade itself. if you can, it was over ported.

    Did you check the idle screw ? Might be open to far.

    I actually just adjusted the line and it idles normal now. BUT I notice a "click" in the pedal just before the gas pedal hits. It's annoyingmore thananything else

    If you have the idle screw closed to far, the throttle plate can stick a little. You can feel it right at the TB.
