This thread fixed my problem, thanks!
99 sport with 4.0 SOHC, ran fine till today, got very cold last night, first real cold of the season. Ex would start right up but would not idle without dieing, have to keep at least a light touch on the accelerator or it would die. Even after it was well warmed up by being driven for 5 miles it would die. Cleaned the IAC valve and it runs fine now.
The plunger or disc thing was stuck closed on mine, I let it soak in electric contact cleaner for 10 minutes and then forced it open with a qtip. It was stuck tight.
