Failed smog. Real time help needed 700

Hi
Posted a while back about getting the 88 745 smogged (Ca). It failed. Had the cat replaced, cleaned throttle body, replaced cap & rotor, replaced wires, replaced plugs, replaced O2 sensor. Car started fine but had a fluctuating idle. It would go from around 725 to 800. Replaced the IAC with a doner from my parts car. I cleaned and checked it before replacement. The idle smoothed out, not perfectly steady, but dang close. The trouble is after replacing even with the idle adjustment knob on the bottom of the TB screwed completely in I can not get the idle below 800rpms. What should I be looking at next? The temp sensor or is it possibly just a vacuum leak that I haven't found yet?

Thanks Brad
