Its been a while, back with idle problems. 200

My girlfriend and I are moving in 2 days, and Murphy has reared his ugly head. I went to the store to get some dog food, come back out, start her up, and she doesn't want to idle. Sputtered, gave it some gas to see if it would clear up, but still sputters. Car drives alright (although a little underpowered) but as soon as I get to a stop sign, she wants to die. She starts everytime, and acts like she wants to stall, but never quite does. I can drive around, and everything is fine until I come to a stop or have to idle.

I've already unplugged the AMM, she started, sputtered and died. I've swapped the IAC valve for one another unit. No codes. Ignition components aren't that old (less than a year) and in good shape. Booster valve is new. Timing belt and tensioner are both newish (less than a year), and both pumps prime when you turn the ignition on.

Any suggestions?
