+1 could be sticking or malfunctioning IAC.

+2 IAC. Remember you have to put the engine in "service mode" for the new part to self calibrate. You can't just stick it on. (at least thats true on my 97 gen VI 502)

It's around $100 at the dealer. You either use the scan tool or you can jump it into service mode using a paper clip. Find an old schooler Merc guy to walk you thru that. I'm not going to post that info here and get flamed.
