Have you cleaned it? Tried restarting the car to help the pc along?
By reset, I meant that the pc will have to refind a proper setting.

Checked all your vacuum hoses for hard-to-see pinholes? Right around male connectors.

"i was told not to spray carb cleaner directly on it... any thoughts on that?"

You bet. I called around to get an opinion on this before and all's I could get is "depends on what you use". No real answer.

So I chose carb cleaner but only with care. One mechanic suggested scraping the IAC screen/filter with a wood device, maybe a toothpick but when you open this up if you haven't already you will see how impractical this is. Put some distance between the device and spray nozzel to prevent blow-through. Wet it up and let it drain back down.
