tried cleaning the TB

Now my car is hesitating bad. I pulled very hard on the intake part's just to move them around and i think i may have damaged something. My bulging python biceps may have cracked something. LOL

Seriously Any ideas guys?

the first thing you should do is go over what you did and recheck all connections, ie MAF connector, etc. make sure everything is tightened up and that you didn't forget to reconnect any hoses.

that's wierd, what did you use to clean it? i used gumout and it worked great. did any of the spray come in contact with the MAF by any chance? if so, that could cause the problem you're describing

what did you use to clean it? Maybe you used to much of it, or something might have messed up the MAF...
Did you just clean like the butterfly and the area around it or you just sprayed the crap outta the TB to clean it?

I took off that flex tube and just wiped the TB with a rag. I didn't use any spray actually because it didn't LOOK dirty.
