So when I pulled the P2135 code this morning, I did a search and came up with the above post. I wiggled the plug and cleared the code, and was able to drive into work. It seemed to act normally.

I'm hoping that it's just that harness plug related. I'm going to clean the connections and see what happens.

Are you still on the CARB tune when this happened? I've had this code pop-up twice. Once while on a modified CARB tune, where I did as I mentioned: unplugged and cleaned the connectors on the harness connecting to the throttle pedal and the throttle body. The second time I got this code was when I switched to the Delicious D-box, which happened immediately. This turned out to be a defective D-box, which I got replaced. Never had the code after that.
