Toyota tacoma intake manifold and IAC valve cleaning and disassembly procedure?

Your throttle body is probably dirty,The throttle body has a hose from the air filter housing attached to it,the throttle body is attached to the intake phlenum.Take the hose off(its rubber with a clamp on it).Do this with a cold engine, NOT RUNNING ! spray some carburetor cleaner inside the venturi and scrub it with a toothbrush,on the side of the throttle body there is a place where a cable goes into,twist the direction of cable to open the throttle plate(inside the throttle body),and continue to clean.Now put it all back together.What happens over a period of time is the Throttle body gets clogged with carbon and cannot breath at idle, the throttle plate when close(at idle)has a very small air gap and cant breath when dirty.If this does not cure your problem,then you will need to replace IAC, idle air control motor / valve replaced.For this you will have to take the throttle body off to replace it and the screws have been installed with locktight and are tricky to get out..

• ** Be careful that any cleaners used are for Fuel Injected systems and are O2 sensor safe. Some Carburator Cleaners can damage FI components.**
• Spraying a throttle body spray cleaner, such as one sold by STP, to clean the throttle body, then starting up and revving the engine, may be enough to dislodge the carbon deposits and material blocking the airway.
  

-----------------

In some cases intake manifold is the issue for this problem.

The intake manifold is a rectangular, ribbed component located in the middle of engines.
Occasionally, an intake manifold needs replacement if coolant is leaking into the oil system, or if the manifold becomes cracked from temperture extremes, such as sub-zero weather or an excessively overheated engine. Intake manifolds are responsible for diverting air from the filter and throttle body assembly to the chamber heads for combustion. The manifold is also the initial place where the fuel and air mixture is atomized in preparation for combustion.

Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal by unscrewing nut with a wrench.

Place a catch pan beneath the radiator and drain the coolant from the engine by unscrewing the drain plug. Unclasp and unscrew the connections for the air filter box. Use a screwdriver to loosen the hose clamp of the fresh air tube connected to the valve cover. Disconnect the throttle body cable bracket from the throttle body-manifold connection with a socket wrench. Loosen the clamp of the output hose connecting the air filter and throttle body and remove the throttle body and filter box assembly from the manifold.

Use a tape and marker to label the plug-in locations for all sensors, tubes and vacuum hoses connected to the air intake manifold and valve cover, including the fuel injector wiring, idle air control valve (IAC), throttle position sensor (TSP), the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve and the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor. This will help to quickly identify where each wire and hose is located once the manifold is replaced. Use corks to plug up fuel lines leading to the manifold once they are removed. Disconnect the line from the cylinder head coolant outlet, positioning it over the catch pan so that any remaining coolant will drip into the pan.

Unscrew the intake manifold support bracket bolt, which can be accessed from the top of the engine or below.

Loosen the serpentine belt by turning the tensioner adjustment bolt counterclockwise with a socket wrench. Remove the serpentine belt. Use a socket wrench to disconnect the power steering pump from the engine, and place it on top of the dash panel so that its hoses can remain connected.

Use a torque wrench to unscrew the manifold retaining bolts. Access the lower manifold plenum retaining bolts from below the engine. Remove the upper and lower manifold plenums separately.

Now clean the intake manifold with the carb cleaner or throttle cleaner.Its easily available at local auto-part stores.
