I put a new Iac valve in because of my high rpm problem and cleaned most of the sensors.

Ok. So I technically got nothing done to my Z today, but I DID however, spend the time and money to order new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, fuel filter, pcv, and front sway end-links for my rig. All ac delco except for the filters, (Fram) pcv, (Purolator) and MOOG problem-solver end links for my rig....looking fwd to possibly better fuel mileage along with easier starts and a bit better handling due to my WHIPPED end-links. I crawled under the front armed with my trusty grease gun only to find the endlinks being held together with rust, and rust ONLY! The nuts were GONE, I can't believe the top washer that holds the top bushing on stayed in place. This was the case on BOTH SIDES! Anyone ever experience this? I'm under the impression my front swaybar was doing NOTHING. Lol
