Default Engine Bucking Wildly at Idle?????

Yep my engine moves violently at an idle. rocks back and forth during idle, albeit my idle is rough as **** now, but i think it move more than it should be. Could i have residual stress left in my mounts from the install. should i loosen them up and retighten???
I am almost positive my engine is running way too rich still. i have put like 3 diff burns on my uberchip in. each time pulling out more fuel and its seems to get better. on the last one it will idle for **** when cold, but get better when it warms.
now today, it wouldnt even start. crank, crank, crank, nothing. it will start to start if i keep it floored, and then sometimes start.
yesterday at idle i had to keep it floored to keep it running, but after i went around the block, it warmed and would idle like at 900 rpm, steady.
Any suggestions or advise???
And aas always thanks for the help in advance
Thanks
