What happens if you mash the gas? You said you had to really baby the throttle to get anything done. If the engine runs perfectly fine all the time but it just feels like it's doing nothing then its a trans issue. Do you hear like a super loud tin-like sound coming from the front of your transmission. Kinda sounds like your torque converter is being dumb. Anyway get back to me on that question. What happens when you mash on the gas?

Also that detent cable can really screw with things if it's not adjusted properly. So make sure that's alright

The problem is intermittent to where it is random. The dentent cable grommet broke while I was working on the throttle body gasket so I bought a new grommet and that's when this problem started after that. I found a bad intake hose and replaced it. The throttle issue got alot better but it is still doing it. When I stomp on the gas peddle the rpm's don't move and car slowely accelerates.. no jumping rpm needle or nothing.. weird you would think rpm needle would jump if you slamp on gas but it stays in same spot.. tps???
