Well cleaned the IAC again this morning. Runs a lot better but I still think I'm going to pick up a new one just for peace of mind. Thanks everybody for the suggestions on what to check. My dad and I were at a loss for quite a while yesterday.

Yeah I'm pretty sure we checked that too. We tested just about every sensor we could find. At any throttle it's fine. When I let off the throttle and decelerate to stop or turn is when the RPM's start to fluctuate. But after a few seconds it goes back to idling fine.

If that were the case I'm pretty sure you'd pop a code and it qouldnt run right at all not just at idle

5. And then I have to go meet with my recruiters since I couldn't make the meeting on Thursday. SO I should be home by like 6:30. And then I'll probably set up some lights outside and at least get my exhaust fixed up as long as it stops raining.
