Default Okay so I cleaned my IACV

And it's still fluctuating in idle after warming up. It doesn't do it when it first starts, only after it's been running a bit. I took off the idle air control value last night and used almost a whole can of brake cleaner. Still fluctuating from 1000 to 1500 fairly rapidly.

Crap.

Did you refill and bleed the coolant system? Might have air bubbles in the system still. I'v heard to also when the car is up to op temp to turn the heat on (if you have it) to ensure that you have all the air out of the heater core also.

Try resetting your ECU by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes.

Or just pull the hazard fuse for 15 seconds and keep your radio settings...
