check the values of your tps sensor. check the tb if its sticking open or if it's not slightly open.

no stick. how do i check the tps ? if i loosen the tps and move it back and forth it really doesnt get any better or worse. if you give it a little gas it still studders until like 2k rpms or so. i really just dont understand this
