...in messing with my ICV yesterday (at the advice of the board members), cleaning it did make a definite improvement, however, it ain't fixed. It's buzzing as it should, but I'm still running a little rich, plus it's still doing the intermittent "miss" when I blip the pedal. It is better tho. (Just for giggles, I also checked for vacuum leaks, but didn't find any). I'm gonna' try to get my hands on a loaner ICV, and swap 'em to see if that's the cause before dropping the dinero on a new one. Will update.

Great advice - thanks much!

...they often dont mind letting you try a used part if they think it might result in a sale.
