The iac is on the throttle body. It is responsible for maintaining idle. Even if it is bad, the engine should start if you push on the gas allowing air to enter the throttle body. Have you checked to see if there is spark and fuel to the engine? Has the check engne light come on?

The check light engine has not come on, when it did start prior to this it idled very high. Should I replace the iac? Or is it the fuel pump?
