Default fix random no start issue, now random idle problem?

hey guys, I recently had problems with my 95 mustang cobra not starting randomly. I hope it was the coil because I changed it and now the cars started every time so far but its only been a couple days. now my problem is that it will randomly have a really rough idle. When it does it it sounds like it has a cam. I'm guessing its my IAC but would that show up a check engine light? My check engine light is not on. I think I heard I can clean the IAC but I'm not sure. Is there a special cleaner for this or a way of testing it? or do I just replace it and hope the problem goes away? Does this even sound like an IAC problem? I'm going to run a koer test as soon as I can but will I don't think the test has anything for the IAC but I might be wrong

Thank in advance for any help.
