Icon3 idle problems

hey i did a y7 swap. my car is a manual and the motor was from an auto.

I think everything is plugged in how it should be, but my car idles at 2000rpms.

after 5 minutes of it warming up it goes from 2000 to 1700 back up to 2000 and so on...

i dont know what the problem is!?

i took off the iacv and cleaned it, reinstalled it. Changed the spark plugs, gapped at .044.

how can i diagnose this problem that makes me want to hammer the **** out of my car?

Is it obd2? is the car throwing codes? Spray carb cleaner on the vaccume hoses and around the intake manifold gasket so see if it will go back to normal, then you'll know its a vaccume leak. Double check all sensors are plugged in and not broken and that your throttle cable is adjusted properly. your TPS and/or Map sensors could be clogged..

i found out the problem was a map sensor so i swapped it out.

now the problem is anything under 2000rpms my car bogs and dies

i can clutch rev it over 2000 and drive the car but it sucks doing that
