idLE FLUCTUATES 900 1994

Ok Ive got my car running after changing the power stage, FI Relay and Radio interference relay. Now the car runs but the idle fluctuates. I used the FAQ and cleaned the throttle body and IAC. Both work and the TPS sensor checks out too. Plus the TPS was adjusted to the instructions in the FAQ. WHat else should I check! Please any ideas! I was recieving a trouble code for the AMM, but it went away after disconecting the negative battery cable and has not returned. Ive yet to get a check engine light!
Thanks in advance
fred

    After cleaning my throttle body I had a fluctuating idle. It did not fluctuate before the cleaning. Turns out I had a misadjusted linkage rod. The one that connects to the throttle body arm. The TPS sensor was not making the closed position. I know you said yours was adjusted but try disconnecting the linkage rod from the TB arm and see if you idle stablizes. Good luck.
