When it's idling, the IACV isn't supposed to be closed.

When you put your finger over the port for the FITV, you say "that works" but what do you mean exactly? The FITV is supposed to be closed when the engine's warm, so there shouldn't be any suction.

Find & fix any vacuum leaks.
Clean up the throttle body bore & throttle plate.
Make sure there's no air pockets in the cooling system.
Set your base idle.
