HELP Needed badly....

Ok, My car is idling at 2000-2250 rpm and at a stop light i dont even have to give it any gas, just let the clutch out and it goes without stalling. .

I replaced my IAC Valve and checked for vaccum leaks and it still idles at 2000. Im not sure what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Vacuum leak from around the plenum, runners or intake manifold might be a place to look.

Check PCV too.

Re: HELP Needed badly....

Have you checked to see if the throttle cable is binding on something? Also check to see if the linkage is intact or if something is loose on it that might be causing it to stick partially open.
