If you have some extra cash might as well just change it see if it does change something, the iac valves at least where i'm from almost always have a 1 year or longer warranty so it can't hurt.
ya i priced one out a while ago at work and it was only like 40 bucks so i might change that. on occasion it will also have a funny idle drop after driving to/from work on the expressway. like when i get off the expressway, and get stopped at a light, when i come to a complete stop the rpm's will drop about 100-200 and then right back to normal a couple times.

mine has never stalled it just runs rough for a few seconds after first starting. if i give it some gas, in the 2-3k range, it immediately goes away.
