RPM Up/Down When Stopping

This has happened to me several times today. It has happened before but not often.
When I was driving this afternoon and I come up to a stop light, I feel the car hesitates and the rpm goes down a little bit and back up then repeats about 2-3 times in a row before it idles fine.
Then when I go to another stop light it does it again. RPM goes up/down, up/down & up/down.
What does this mean? I haven't gotten around to doing a Seafoam or replaced the spark plugs yet.

Does anyone have a picture of where this is located and what it looks like? I can clean it but just need to know which one it is on the TB.

Thanks. I will clean it this weekend. Do I need to replace anything when I take the IACV off and put it back on? No gaskets or anything?
