Default Wobble?

Anyone had a problem with the car wobbeling, when going up a slight gradient at low revs, like the engine was misfiring on one cylinder, i have fitted new plugs, filter, and added some injector cleaner ,its has got better but is still there.

I heard a squirt of carb cleaner to the throttle body would fix it.

Default Make sure the butterfly moves freely and smoothly. At low rpm, I think the butterfly's movement

is important to the air turbulance, if it's sticky, the openning motion is not smooth, there's the uneven air flow. At higher RPM, more air in, more stable even if the butterfly is sticky. It's just my mechanical logic ... )
