Deceleration issue

AS most of u know the dfco on this car can make the car jerk and jump if u go slowly in 1st gear or are driving in 1st in traffic. last night my car started to stick throttle wise in every gear. since i have tranny bushings it makes for nasty shifts. higher gears not so much cuz it takes a little more to get to the gear but it is irritating me. when i shift from first to second the throttle is sticking. like if i leave it in 1st and just hit the gas it goes up normal but the deceleration isnt as jerky anymore so if i shift to 2nd it is delayed and jerks the car. i dont know why it's doing this at all and just wanna see if anyone else's had this issue before i go to the dealer.

so the symptom is give gas get to 3k and the car doesnt decel fast like it usually does so when i shift i have to slip it to keep it from bucking horribly. i dont wanna keep slipping it cuz i dont wanna mess up my clutch.

Sounds like a dirty throttle body. The butterfly could be sticking cause it's gummed up. I'd look at that first cause it's an easy fix.
