Yes, you may have a bad IAC valve. One of the most common symptoms commonly associated with a problematic idle air control valve is irregular idle speed. The idle air control valve is programmed to regulate and maintain the engine idle speed at a constant rate. If the valve fails or has any issues it can cause the idle speed to be thrown off. This may result in an unusually high or low idle speed, or in some cases a surging idle speed that repeatedly climbs and falls. It will need to be replaced.

Same issue, but mine would die at 70mph as well. Then one day, it just wouldn't start again. Now it won't even turn over, and one mechanic believes the motor is locked up! I have no idea where to begin!
