that sounds like a MAP sensor or throttle control code. There's no way its picking up an loose clamp, I agree, its picking up an internal leak to the TB or the IM and is either throwing the MAP off, or something like the idle control valve doesn't like what it sees.
OR
You have nothing in place to hide boost from the map sensor, and its reading positive pressure.
