Default 2000 Cherokee sport ran fine now stalling

Idles around 500 mark shakey lil bit car starts fine, runs fine while warming up but then idle gets shakey as warming up temp usually runs 210 little less thinking on changing the cps no codes on car oil was just done, new battery, injectors fairly new 2yrs, spark plugs fairly new 2 yrs, radiators new, new thermostat and housing any ideas?

Volt meter pretty steady above 13 right below 14 does move a little I have a 12in woofer in back but other than that always pretty much steady, with the throttle body cleaner it's ok to spray sensors etc or better to spray with a rag then wipe

That sounds normal.

Once you remove the TB there's only the map sensor besides the IAC. Rather than remove the map sensor I covered it with a sandwich bag. Then after removing the IAC I sprayed the TB and used a toothbrush and rags to get it clean. Then did the IAC. Just follow the link I posted.

Make sure to get where the IAC (idle air control) goes into the TB good and clean.

Hey guys cleaned the TB and all connections to it and seafoamed engine, runs bit smoother hasnt died on me but still feels like it'll die bc idle is bit shakey do you think I need a new idle air control? The connection to the iac has cracked off the connection piece that hold the sensor connections together never realized until now but I zipped tied it in place for now and seems to be running fine just idles wierdly, once warmed up
