98 EX idle problem

Replaced the knock sensor in my car and it runs great now but everytime i depress the brake pedal several times at a dead stop the car drops to 200 rpms and the whole car shakes. this happened before the knock sensor replacement though but it never died. no clue what is going on.

Does it idle rough when the car is in neutral and your foot is off the brake?

Sounds like you have a vacuum leak somewhere. Check for that first, if the problem still exists check your TPS
