anyone familiar with tb clean up?

i was driving to work this morning, came to a red light, i downshifted from 3rd to 2nd, all of a sudden the car rev'd up to 6k, i put it in neutral and its still sitting at 6k and holding. i tried to put it into 1st or 2nd gear, clutch didnt work and the car wasnt moving. so i turned off the car, let it sit for a few mins and tried again. same thing happened, car starts and steadily revs up without putting my foot in the pedal.

so i pushed the car to the parking lot and went to work. when i was on lunch break i decided to start up the car again, this time it was fine and rpm was steadily around 1k. i shifted into 1st and the car was moving, so i figured its not the clutch or defective hoses. seconds later, rpm rev to 3k while i was in neutral. the weird thing is, when i tired to move my car down the lot, it accelerates without touching the gas pedal, i shifted into 1st and the car slowly takes off.

talked to my tuner and a few evom members, they said its either the vaccum lines popped off, accelerator cable is stick or most likely the throttle body is sticking. if you guys are familiar with cleaning up with tb, i could use the extra help. thx!

Damn it edison, when the hell are you going to call me to get all the stuff done to your car? Call me up ASAP so we can finish up on your car and make sure everything is running well. Sure your friend did a pretty good job of pissing me off but I'm not going to hold you to it. Call me up and let's set a time.
