OK problem fixed it was my IACV which was dirty with carbon and even the throttle plate was nice and black so I cleaned both and also cleaned the inside of the intake as well and now the car turns over smooth as silk and no more pulsating feel

Spoke to soon I went for a test drive and my check engine light came on and the engine started to shake light started to flash went to auto zone and they told me that cylinder number two is misfiring. What did I do?? All I did was clean the IACV and throttle body, what could have caused this or is there a bad spark plug or wires HELP PLEASE!

Yeah cause I bought a new coil and its still doing it you think if I clean it that it will solve the problem?? Cause I used STP throttle cleaner which is O2 and catalytic safe. I cleaned the throttle body and sprayed cleaner inside the intake , scrubbed with a brush, dried it with a rag and put it back together. Thats all I did
