It may or many not idle properly as the IAC will remain at whatever opening it had at the time it was unplugged.

i would test the maf and take the 02 sensors out to see if there all black and test them to see what there seeing. would be a big help if the mechanic has a diagnostic machine that can test these while running. neither are cheap.

thanks craby, i unplugged the maf and it made no difference. he said he was going to look into the o2's tomorrow. he also said he contacted somebody who said something about a bad ground on the iac will cause it too.
