I've run into some issues though. The car does not idle great, so I decided to clean out the IACV, the IA distributor (which was clogged solid). The IACV has an adjustment knob on it, which I accidentally moved when I yanked it out.
What's the factory setting (or a good ballpark) for this knob?
The Microswitch is also annoying the **** out of me. With the throttle at rest, the linkage wasn't even touching the switch. I looked at the Mircoswitch, no way to adjust (unlike other CIS cars I've owned where you can move it back and forth. I adjusted the throttle cable all the way out and the linkage is still 2-3 mm from engaging the microswtich and everything is loose and sloppy adusted out like that. What the hell?!? Is my cable just all stretched out or am I going about this the wrong way?

What year is your car? I/ve never seen an IACV with an adjustable knob. I also had a problem with idling yesterday. I bought a new O2 sensor and the problem is fixed. As for your cable, there is 2 adjustment points: one is under the air filter housing and the other is attached to the gas pedal. Take a few pictures and post them of the microswitch and all surrounding components. Liquiddog may be right about the spring being amiss.
