Check all your vacuum lines. If the IAC is bad or clogged, my experience is that it won't idle at all. Did you disconnect any to access the plugs? I just had one that didn't look bad but turned out to be, see my thread from a couple weeks ago.
good luck!

Ether? you mean starting fluid? never used it to check for vacuum leaks. check all your hoses and their connections. there's one behind the vapor management valve on the driver side firewall that's easy to miss. are they OEM? consider replacing any that are suspect, they can look fine but still be bad.
be careful with that ether!
