Intermittent idiling around 2k & other Stuff

Hey All,
Yesterday while at a stop light, I experienced my car seemed to be idiling rathr hard. So I slip her into netrual and notice that she's idiling @ 2k rpm. So I quickly turned off and re starte the car only to notice that she's idiling normal again. After that, Inoticed that this has been occuring the rest of the evening. When I got home and parked I slipped in park and kept the car running to see if there was something going on with the throttle only to see nothing. I did clean the EGR and the IAC valves about a week ago. A month ago I got a SES code for the EGR that's why i cleaned it as well as the IAC. Oh! one other thing. Since that day I cleaned those two valves I noticed that during starts, i have to tap the throttle a little just to get her started. Once i do that, she seems to be running ok. Any correlation? lil help here please. Sry 4 all da bndwdth. Thanks in advance.

i think i used throttle body cleaner or it could have been contact cleaner. when i get home i will verify. was that to harsh for the IAC valve?
