Alright I did some more research on the IAC. The plunger thingy that moves back and forth does not seal when it is in the closed position. Should it seal or should there be some blow-by?

I cleaned my maf wires, senders, and anything else from the maf to the throttle blades. The idle hasn't started to "race" again,

But now at idle it surges between ~500-1200 it's a very slow rythmic surge probably 3-5sec. at 500 taking about 2-3sec to climb to 1200; then hanges at 1200 for another 3-5sec. before repeating.
