The symptoms of a faulty or failing IAC valve (Idle Air Control Valve) are not present in your issue. With a faulty IAC valve, the engine will rev up and down constantly, usually ending in a stalling engine.
I believe your problem lies with the throttle position sensor. Symptoms of faulty TPS are transmission shift issues, bucking and jerking, idle surging, engine cutting off, hesitation when taking off, surge while cruising down the highway.
Usually a check engine light will illuminate due to a faulty component. If your engine light is on, you can get the codes scanned with a diagnostic scanner for free at most local part stores such as AutoZone, or buy a scanner to keep and use it. This will help pinpoint the culprit out much quicker.
Below are removal/installation instructions for the TP sensor (Throttle Position).
REMOVAL:
Turn ignition off. Remove air induction hose between throttle body and air cleaner. Disconnect Throttle Position (TP) sensor harness connector. TP sensor is mounted on throttle body. See FIG. 3. Remove the 2 TP sensor screws. Remove TP sensor.
FIG. 3
INSTALLATION:
Install TP sensor. Apply Loctite(R) 242 Thread-Locking Compound (21485277) to TP sensor screws. Install TP sensor mounting screws. Tighten screws to specifications listed below instructions. Connect TP sensor harness connector. Install air induction hose.
