You spelled "steadier" right the first time.


I saw you said you cleaned the IAC, but have you replaced the IAC? Cleaning it is not always an effective fix.

Did you check the resistance between the contacts on that sensor with a multimeter in the 200k Ohm range?

For what it's worth, I have a Craftsman which is dead on with my Dad's Fluke (best meter you can buy IMO). I keep a cheap Harbor Freight meter in my truck and it's not too far off from my Craftsman and the Fluke. I've tested them against each other for voltage and resistance.
