Default 1998 Neon SOHC Rough Idle Stalls

HELP! My 98 Neon SOHC started Idling rough. Showed Code 32. Changed EGR and repaired pinched EGR Vac hose. Worked fine for a few days and started Idling rough again and stalling at idle sometimes, now shows code 52. O2 sensor and wiring look fine. Gets good spark and good fuel pressure. Gonna try cleaning the throttle body and IAC. Any other sugestions will be greatly appriciated.

Did you pull and look at them?

Try the TB cleaning...could have soot build-up.
