sporadic rpm when parked sometimes

Alright, so sometimes when i have my car parked. the rpm sporadically goes up and down. Also, if i try to just floor the pedal while parked, the rpm won't go past 5. it stays on 5 and then starts jerking.

Could it be a problem with an idle sensor?

i found this part on Ebay, not sure if it might fix my problem:

ISC valve can cause erratic idle. There's been previous posts showing how to "clean" this valve, which may help. In my wife's 2000 TL, the low idle was caused by restricted EGR passageways. But in your sporadic up/down idling, I'd consider checking your coolant level. It's possible there's a small leak or may have air trapped within the system ?
