That's because you did not open up and clean your IAC or TPS. when you remove them, it will take you a long time to re-adjust the RPM issues. In my case, IAC was clogged so I had to take it apart to deal with that. Anyone can just remove and clean the throttle body but the pain comes when you remove the IAC and TPS both. a milimeter of movement on the IAC or TPS can change between 500-1500 on the RPM scale. My advice, do not do it unless you have time and you know there is something wrong with it.
