Default Idle problems

When sitting at a stop light sometimes my idle drops down to about 500rpm and it feels like its going to die then runs back up to normal. It happens with no accessories on. What do you guys think could cause that?

Default RE: Idle problems

Clean the IAC (Idle Air Control Valve)..
Use MAF sensor cleaner or electircal contact cleaner and clean the hole it plugs into as well.

Search the group for details.
