Under the throttle body! There is a coolant hose running to it.

I'm pretty sure its just a sensor. The ecu then adjusts the timing and fuel. Thats why when you have a messed up IAC, the engine surges.

the valve you are talking about that is located under the throttle body is called the fast idle valve(cold start idle)

the IAC is on the back on the intake manifold with two collant lines running from it and an electrical plug!

There is an idle screw on the throttle body at the top center of it. You can adjust it with a flathead. Give that a try. Plus get the right ecu.
