Default Stciky idle

Well I have cleaned the throtle body valve like I should, but the idle on this truck jumps all over the place. At a stop it will sit at 1k for abit then drop to about 700 RPM..today it stayed at 1K with the AC on..is this normal?..cause it's kind of scary not having the engine help with braking.. btw this is on a 99 f250 5.4 gas ,

If it's sticky, try adhesive remover.
