the idle would not stay steady up and down and as i would drive from time to time it acted as if it was loading up would have to push the clutch in and rev it up then would be fine for awhile but now that i have cleared fault codes it runs great and i didnt do anything to it

You have 2 sensors on your throttle body...Throttle Positioning sensor TPS and a Idle control sensor...sometimes cleaning them will help.
