Default idle problem

i am starting to get anooyed with this...here is the problem

okay so when i start my car in the morning and the motor is still cool it idles fine...but then it gets a little warmer and it idles at like 2000 rpms...then after drving for a bit it with surge...sounds kind of like the iacv is messed up...but then it will stop surging if i turn my car off then back on...what do you think? i am thinking about checking for a vacume leak....anything else to look for?

Iacv sensor on the back of the intake manifold, take it off and spray it clean with brake cleaner.
