IAC= Idle Air Control, it stands out like a big errection on the Throttle body on the front of it, If removed you will see two holes about an inch big, take it out and clean it with some brake cleaner or replace it with a new one, im not saying its the exact probleme but try there first and clean your MAF

MAF= Mass Air Flow, and this is right after the air filter, its black and cant miss it, if your looking that the throttle body you went to far

you have to run a koeo/koer test then it should tell you if one of them is bad

I had a similiar issue when i first got my 93. I didnt know what the hell was goin on. My dad told me to change the 02 sensors, so I did and it didnt do it anymore.

I might as well change them then It sounds like this can be a reason for a lot of problems

The slight popping is probably the smog pump. No big deal.
The ECM (computer) momentarily kicks up the rpms when yopu first push in the clutch to shift. This makes shifting smoother. Quite normal in most cases. It does sound like your IAC is sticking though. Also make sure that at idle, the TPS voltage output is under 1V. Preferably around .97v.
