I know the fix your refering too. But I'm sure the broken bolt isn't helping (has to be letting air sneak in), and that linkage that is off on the lower intake isn't good either.

After some work (removing die grease from the sensors) it wouldn't go as high and would drop after 3 seconds, maybe the IAC valve just sticky/leaking. But thought it would be easier to remove the bolt stud left in there with the upper intake off, and good thing because I would of never found that lower intake linkage hanging.

Just have to wait now for gaskets.
