Not really. Your throttle body and IAC may need cleaned. The IAC may need replaced even after cleaning.

So I cleaned the throttle body and the IAC and the car still have the same problem. The weird thing about the car since it started to do like that I started to smell a gasoline smell after I shut it off. I don't know if there is a problem with the fuel filter or the fuel pump.

the car slightly better after I clean the throttle body and IAC. And I cleaned all the electrical connectors. The car still rev hard at idle, but didn't die, and I noticed black smoke from the exhaust.
