Last night I was driving home, and when I was pulling up to a red light I shifted the car into neutral (manual) and the rpm's actually went up without my foot on the gas. The engine revved to about 3K and just stayed there until I put my foot under the pedal and lifted it up. After the light changed and I started driving again, it revved up and idled at 3k again. It never passes 3k, but I could pretty much drive the car without my foot on the gas until I lift the pedal back up. Any ideas about this?

is it the 7afe engine ? i had a similar issue and it's a known bug in that the throttle body sticks open.. just a matter of cleaning it out so the butterfly valve can move withouth stickingopen.
