    Just clean the throttle body itself, as that is the IAC.

    Maybe.

    Unplug it, then start the car. It might take a few attempts to get it running but if it idles smooth afterwards and runs okay, then I'd say the maf is faulty.

    Your check engine light will come on because the MAF is unplugged.

    No. It's 2 screws and 2 nuts to take off and unplug the TB


    Edit: of course that's after you remove the maf and whatever intake setup you have

    Yep just like that
    Scrub it clean with some rags and TB spray
    And get some MAF spray since it will be off...but don't scrub on the MAF

    Crap it's deeper than a idling problem right?

    So it stumbles through the power band or just at 2k?...fuel filter maybe
    When was the last time you changed plugs/wires...
    Did you scan it to see if there is any codes.

    Run a can of seafoam in the tank...maybe dirty injector....start with the simple....do a close visual inspection of vac lines, wiggle spark plug wires to make sure they are on tight,cus it out

    The car uses the throttle body to keep the engine idling.
