Just a couple of months ago I swapped in my cleaned up IAC along with teh cleaned up Throttle body. ( I have a rotation of parts that I swap in then clean the ones I pulled off so they are ready for next time). The car was running fine.
I am suspicious of a vacuum leak. Not sure where or why but the idle is a bit funny. And I was ruling out the IAC and throttle body since they are recently cleaned.
It did the same thing this morning. Ran good to the gym, but bucked on the way home. Maybe a an intake manifold vacuum leak?? When the cars engine is cooling at different rates, it causes a leak. I'll have to get in there with a Spray bottle and spray around OH, I did just get a CHECK ENGINE light on the way to work so I will pull the code at lunch. Usually these code are so vague it could be anything.
