Based on the values you posted, the MAF voltage is fine. I would charge the battery, then proceed!
When the TPS is set correctly:
- did you try shorting B & C poles on the test plug? Any difference? If yes, can you adjust the TB Idle screw to get a clean idle?
- Did you try disconnecting the ICV? Any difference?
- Did you unplug the O2 sensor? Any difference?

ICV is new as of a few days ago. I did try disconnecting it last year w/ no positive results. May try this again with the new unit in there and let you know.
O2 has been both plugged in and unplugged, no difference.
John, if you remember me from last year I made note that it runs better at idle on +10% fuel setting. But then it is too rich off idle and is losing efficiency.

By better atr idle at +10% fuel I mean it pulls slightly more vac. (concistent 14, maybe 15 if I'm lucky) and runs smoother. Not a fix that is for sure. Once again just slightly masking the concern.
