Default stalling when cold

ok.....I have a 96 camry 4 cylinder that stalls every damn time I start cold. If the car sits for more than an hour.....when I go to start it....it will spit and sputter and stall. I have to hold the rpms at 2k or so for maybe 1-3 minutes and then all is fine. Like once it warms up...just a bit im good to go. And its fine the whole time while driving except during start-up.

So.....a while back I cleaned out the IAC and it seemed to work for a bit and is now back on full force. My question is.....is it definitely the IAC? is there anything else that can cause this symptom?

and lastly.....whats the best place to pick one up? the IAC....link/site?

Test the engine coolant temp (ECT) sensor for proper resistance.
