When I start my car, It idles so low that the car stalls. I am guessing this is because my IAC is clogged? Can anyone help me with this problem?

Looked at my plugs, 3 of the 4 platinum tips were missing (S&%T). Replaced them with some basic $2.50/plug NGK copper's. It starts right up with no hesitation, but I still need to feather in some throttle for about 30-50 seconds then its fine (only after sitting in cold temps <65F). I didn't check the battery but it hasn't given me any problems lately, OPTIMA FTW. The IAC does sound like a reasonable prognosis after the new plugs and a reasonably o.k. battery. Will work on this weekend. Thanks for the help
