just take off the 2 bolts off the IAC, disconnect it from the TB and then take it out its wire harness. spray some carb cleaner in it to disolve the carbon build up into the two openings. and then to put it back on just connect it to the TB, put the two bolts on and then connect the wires to it. and see if it helps.

start with the easy stuff first.
