Pappy, I can't remember what year your car is but check and see if it has an adjustable throttle position sensor. If it does have the voltage checked, it should be at .54 volts with the throttle closed. If it's higher than this have it set correctly, a high setting can cause a high idle.

1984. I would hit the Helm Manual and check the diagnostics for a high idle.
It could mean a vacuum leak, too. Check all the little hoses around the intake and such. |
