Did you put the silver gasket back on the EGR AND the correct way (no leaks)?

^ well all i did after cleaning the egr is also remove the other sensors on the throttle boby and clean them. Ok, So if you are facing the mouth of the t.b on the left side theres one that i think i used an 8ml to remove and on top theres one that i used a phillips, which one is the idle?

There's two "idle" screws. One controls the static air entering the manifold past the BAC valve, the other controls the actual stop of the throttle plate itself.

So you didnt know what you were doing but you did it anyway! Awesome! Get yourself a chilton or Haynes shop manual from autozone or advance auto and read up on it.
