The IAC is not adjustable, so if that is the problem then it will need to be replaced. Another option would be to fiddle with the idle adjustment screw that is near the throttle linkage underneath the throttelbody to see if that remedies your problem. Also for future reference make sure to post the year, make and model of the car in question, the more we know the better we can try to help. And also are you using or have you installed an aftermarket tB?

Just use some brake cleaner and clean it out.
