    What is your idle with the engine warmed up in park?

      ummmm... Alright, warm up the engine, unplug the IACV and adjust the idle to about 650RPM (you will need to turn the screw counter clockwise). Turn off the car, plug the IACV back in remove the "backup" fuse from the fuse panel for 10 seconds, put it back in. Start the car, problem fixed.

      BTW, the idle screw is to the top left of the intake pipe on the throttle body.
