throttle position sensor......? thats my best guess............. is the radiator fan switching on and off? i know when the fan comes on and goes off... that causes a small idle shift in my car, its not a lot, but you do notice it....

Did you have to replace the idle air control valve or just clean it? If you had to replace it how much did it run you?
