Default car idles at 2000rpms?

ok well i walk outside and the car all of the sudden just does not start...it's done this before once but cranked once we jumped it and all has been fine for a month...i went to get a new battery and they said it was fine...now the same thing happens...this time i jump it...it idles to 2000rpm's...now note that i had it tuned in between the two battery problems...why in the world would this happen...and what could be the causes...

IAC could be getting stuck, might wanna take it out and clean it, something simple to start with. my friends friend had a mustang that wouldnt run, the IAC was stuck from all the carbon build up. we had to give it gas to run, u might have the opposite problem? maybe?

possibly...i did just use top end cleaner on a 100k miles engine...i suppose it could happen...however, i did clean the throttle body a few weeks ago...i'll give it a shot
