Check your fuel pressure and idle stepper motor.

The IAC is located on the throttle body near to the tps and regulates the idle speed.

No, but the idle at 1300 means two things: iac malfunctioning or lean mix due to low fuel press or bad O2 sensor.

I had something like this happen to me as well. Not saying the "Same" thing. But similar sounding. I was always getting a 3rd cyl misfire. I changed out O2 sensor and air filter. Which ever one it was, it fixed it.
