Re: (SuperSlow)
You may also need to adjust the idle set screw on the throttle body - this happened to me before and i ended up turning in the screw about a 1/2 turn and my bouncing idle was gone

Re: (moyospeed)
clean your iavc with break cleaner i suggest the breaklean brand is the best.(green can) clean in both holes until all **** comes out and buy a new black rubber seel from dealership will cost less than 3 bucks. it can be from an f series h series b series. all the rubber seel are the same. it will never do it again if done right. the seel is the important part. get it!!!!!!!

I'm willing to bet half of the stuff in your engine bay isn't wired/connected correctly... It sounds like whoever did the engine install before you bought it didn't know what they were doing.

check the egr as well. mine did this same thing and i have problems with the egr valve. just get a piece or metal to block the egr and bolt the valve back down. this way you shouldnt throw a code.
