Default Need Help Car wants to stall at very low throttle

Hey guys i got a 93 sc300 with about 99k brand new timing belt, water pump, seals, harmonic balancer and tps.

i just had everything put in and adjusted but when i pull off at slow speeds it bucks almost feels like someone closing off my vacuum line for a second and then it pulls off. also at high speeds if you just feather the throttle to go a bit faster it jerks back an forth.

not quite sure what it could be but sometimes if im in reverse it gets really close to stalling out and throwing an engine code but then it turns back on with no CEL

Is the tps the sensor that needs to be angled correctly? maybe the mechanic didn't align it right?? also check for vacuum leaks and all connections are tight.. make sure throttle body gasket is in good condition and tight

its got all new vacuum hoses but ill go back over it, and the tps seems to be adjusted fine because i had him re-do it once already... but when the car actually stalled out it threw an engine code and its kept it ever since. its code 71 for egr but could a bad egr have an adverse affect on your performance and/or cause stalling?
