Well my CEL light has been on for about a month
and finally my car when you start it will just not hold rpms it just dies anything under 1k. Could this be caused by my bad downstream o2 sensor(po155) that is bad on my car? I dont know what to do?

P0155 would be the front upstream sensor.

It's possible it's causing stalling, but clean your IAC too.

This also sounds like a possible vacuum leak around the hoses leading to the accordian / intake tube, or somewhere else on the UIM. (That little hose leading to the 2" pipe on the underside of the UIM just behind the TB inlet comes to mind ...) BTDT

The IAC valve is located on the UIM back towards the firewall on the drivers side. It is a small silver 'can' (1.5" Dia.) with a 2 wire connector going to it.

What does a new IAC go for? I cleaned mine, but i still get idle craziness and the car will stall the first time i start it once it drops below 1000. After that, its fine.

List price is around $85. Bill J can get you one for less.

yeah, I payed 85 for mine from the dealer, and it went on in about 10minutes. Pretty easy install.
