So Ive been having issues with my idle for quite some time now. For a while it was bouncing consistently between 1800rpm and 2200rpm. so I swapped throttle bodies (i couldnt get the iac out). so problem solved! its no longer bouncing, now it is stuck at 3000rpm.
So I pulled off that throttle body and because I had the new screws I forced the screws off my original tb, cleaned it and put it back together. same problem. I dont know what to do anymore, I'm stumped, any ideas are very much welcome. --------------------  The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed? |

I had the same prob after i got my car from the shop, but it does idle as high as yours ~1.5k rpms. I just sprayed the throttle opener with carb cleaner and it worked. -------------------- God made man....

I wish it was that simple! i sprayed the hell out of it and still nothing, im kind of at the end of my rope here. ill check out those tests tho. -------------------- The question is not how far.
