Rough Idle on Start Up
Hey guys new to the forum here. I have a 2000 xj, bought used off Craigslist with 130k on it. I've been driving it around for the past year and a half, and lately I have been noticing sometimes in start up it idles rough. As soon as I slip in in Drive, the shaking stops. It does not do this every time, so it's hard to pinpoint where it comes from, any ideas?

When was it last tuned up? Also, you can start simple by cleaning the throttle body and IAC valve.
