So finally got around to test the IAC:
- the resistance across the two pins were 10.3 ohm - withinn spec
- could not get a readout pin to housing, since the housing was not conductive.

I took it off and cleaned it with crab cleaner, put it back the idling improved alot but was still not normal - at least it would not stall.
Forked out the money for a new one, and just put it in - car runs like a charm! - for now....

Thanks for all your help.
