Default 99GT...Rough Idle, Occasional Stall.....IAC?

Had my car stored for the winter. Now it idles like crap and occasionaly when I come to stop in neutral, the RPM's will dip to like 300-400 and the car will stall.

Someone mentioned cleaning the IAC so I'll give this a try first. But, where is it located exactly? On the TB somewhere? Someone have a pic?

If this doesn't work what to do next?

that and also check your mass air flow sensor. something as small as a strand of hair can screw it up and cause the car to run poorly

Thanks for replying....But I'm ashamed to say that I have found my problem. I forgot to plug in one of those small hoses going to the air intake last time I cleaned my air filter :/

Gawd! I gotta stop drinking beer when I'm working on my car :/
