Tada,

The symptoms you are describing reminds me of one time after re-installing the throttle body I was not able to maintain idle, and after a lot of head scratching I noticed that one of the small pins inside the connector that goes to the throttle body was bent...

After getting the single pin straight again, the engine ran smooth ever again .. :-)

It may not be your cause but simple enough to check, good luck!
