Throttle cracker and throttle follower tables are useful for tuning the idle after the throttle snaps shut. Takes some trial and error to find exactly what it wants... work the cracker first. May have to work the delays too in order to get what you want.

Did you raise or lower the values in the cracker table?

I raise it by 2 from 0 to 8 mph, it was at 0 stock whenever i making a stop n mph get to 8 it stalls then go back to idle normal when the car completely stops.

You are adding too much air - here is a shot of a tune I did the other day to give you an idea what the table should look like. Make small (like .2) changes to find what it wants...
