If you have had the battery disconnected, it may just need time to learn. Your new IAC pintle may not be in the right position. If it is a relearn issue, the more you can try to let it idle the better it will get. You can also try this procedure to see if it will help at all:

IAC reset

-Depress accelerator slightly

-Start engine, then release accelerator pedal, run engine for 5 seconds

-Turn ignition "OFF" for ten seconds

-Restart engine and check for proper idle operation



Of course, you still may have some other issue.
