After browsing the DIY sections, I will be cleaning the IACV today and also the map sensor and possibly doing the "wack" mod lol, thanks for the input guys, I will keep you posted, much appreciated!
Later i changed the spark plugs, cleaned the throttle body. Make sure you do the proper ecu reset procedure, thats most important.
Well all last night and this morning the car ran perfect and smooth, today after my friend got out of class the car struggled again and at one point the car even stalled 6 times in one block. Would spark plugs help any? The car seems to not be misfiring or hestitating just can't hold correct idle.

First thing I would do is pull off the IAC valve and clean it.

as the car is in the process of stalling be sure also not to apply any pressure on the gas and just let the car stall on its own, and hopefully the car should then run fine as the ecu should eventually learn on its own.
