Exclamation Idle issue

My idle sometimes jumps to 1300 - 2000rpm and stays there. If I tap the gas it returns to normal but it is very annoying! I think its one of the sensors (probably the IAC) but Im still looking for a V8 TB and dont want to waste the money on sensors. Do you think cleaning the IAC sensor will help? Or are they the same as on the V8 TB.

Or does anyone have a V8 TB I can buy?

Oh really! What kind of performance gains would I see with the TB? High or low end and most importantly how much for the lot??

i would definitely say it's the IAC, but if you're looking at the v8 throttle body, then go that route.
