Ok..... that's simple enough.
Just keep listening for the engine to race up when started and then fall down to an immediate smooth idle every time. No touching of the gas pedal allowed. Just turn the key and it fires up!
That way you will know the IACV has no problems.

Have the other intermittent problems gone away?
How the gas mileage doing since it use to smell?
