Robb, you're my hero.
IAC - Idle Air Control
MAF - Mass Air Flow sensor

i know what that is lol the iac is located near the front under the hood above the horn
Well, I'm not so sure you do know. The IAC is bolted on to the intake manifold on the driver's side. The MAF is right behind the air filter on the intake tube.

When you get back, you could search for "iac cleaning" and "maf cleaning." You will find out more by reading those threads than by waiting for someone to answer you.
