Backfire when going to idle RPM

Hey guys.

I just had a problem with my IAC today. I pulled it out and sprayed it down with Throttle Body cleaner. It got the car running, but now when I have the car revved to anywhere over 1,500 RPM and take my foot off the gas, I get a couple of quick little backfires out my exhaust. Could this problem be related to the IAC? Any ideas how to fix it?

I dont think tha you can just pull the IAC out, I believe that there is a specific procedure on this. Also, what is your static timing? Sounds like a complete tuneup is needed.
