Weird stuff after swapping throttle bodies.
Okay here's the deal. I had a hanging idle problem with my car (mods in sig) and I thought it might be my ported TB so I swapped it with my friends stock one. The ported throttle body made his idle hang too so we swapped them back figuring I found my problem because my car drove fine with the stock TB.
Now for some reason his idle is hanging up with his stock throttle body. Everything is tight and we tried resetting the PCM but it's still doing it.
Any idea what might cause this?

Fixed it. I pulled the IAC out and guess what. There was no gasket on it. It must have fallen off when I swapped the sensors from my throttle body to the ported one. I put a gasket on it and it's much better now.

Well I drove it around for a while then it came back. Tried cleaning it and it still does it.
Funny thing is if I unplug the IAC it's fine, as soon as I plug it in the idle starts to hang again.
