That shade tree mechanic being me! It all started off with an oil change, then I decided to clean my Throttle Body. That progressed to removing the IAC and cleaning it too. Put everything back together and now the car idles waaaay too high and is seeking up and down! Did I put the the Air Mass Sensor back in wrong? Does the it matter which way it goes in? I put it in so the holes were facing the airstream or direction of airflow. I removed the Air Mass Sensor completely and the idle wasn't as high, but it was still a bit high and continued to seek up and down. I don't know what I did? Any ideas out there? The throttle body wasn't that dirty by the way. Can't believe I did this to a perfectly good running car. This is a 93 940, non turbo.

Thanks,

Luke
