You may have a leak due to improper seal, or may have knocked the throttle body wiring off a little.

Why do you want that paper weight called a throttle body spacer on your car anyway? It does nothing for performance on a fuel injected engine.

What's the code that tripped the engine light? That will tell you where to look.
