    Just finished up putting in the new IAC and cleaning up the throttle body. Seems to have fixed the raised idle issue. Took it for a ride on my test loop and it ran well. Also seems to idle better than even before the idle issue. I'd recommend just replacing the IAC if you have the same issue I was having. They aren't to expensive and are easy to replace. Not worth the trouble of trying to clean them out.

    Shout out to JustRight who recommended the CRC throttle body cleaner. I picked up a can and it worked like a charm. Advance Auto was having a special, buy a can of MAF cleaner get the TB cleaner FREE, so I did. I used it in conjunction with an old toothbrush and it cleaned the carbon gunk off lickity split. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Yup, Ms, D might even bring it out to Carlisle. Seems to be running fine.
