I recently cleaned the throttle body in my truck and now have no problems with get up and go. The problem is when I'm going to stop. Im hitting the brakes and the truck acts like it is jumping before it stops. Anyone got an ideas?

Did you use the old gasket or a new one?

The old gasket was clean so I left it on there.

Try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. The ECM may need to be reset since you cleaned the sensors etc.

What did you use to clean it?
Also did you get anything on the Mass flow sensor ? cleaner? grease? finger print? That can really screw up how a car runs.

I used Seafoam MAF cleaner. Car ran like complete shite after I cleaned it. Reset the computer and it ran like new.
