Start up rev

When I start the motor hot, it'll rev up to 2000 and sit there for a couple of seconds. I thought this was the IAC park steps, but adjusting it didn't help. A cold start works fine. Any ideas?

try cleaning out the IAC passage ways. They can carbon up really bad, and screw with the closed, and open IAC counts.

Went through all that when I tore everything apart. Are the park steps how far the IAC is open when your start the car?

Yes.
But why would it all of a sudden change?.
Still sounds like an IAC related problem.

Could you give some more info on the cars specs? What code your running as your base chip?

I had a similar problem when I was running the AUJP base code on my 5speed car. I also had some other minor open loop problems along with other minute driveability problems. I've since then switched over to the 92 305/5spd chip and copied all of my exsisting tables over from the AUJP chip, it runs much better and also starts great.

On hot starts now it will jump to 1500rpms max, if that. One big thing I noticed between the two is the fact that the manual chip parks the IAC at 120 instead of the 160 for the auto tranny. You could try and fudge with that a little to see how it works but I have a feeling its a little more complicated than that.
Like Bruce said, it could just be a dirty IAC passage.

I've got a new IAC in it, but it might be sticking or something. I've got my park steps at 0 and this only happens sometimes. The car used to do it when stock once in a while though, so I figured it might be hidden in the code somewhere.

Car is 87 Auto Vette with ARAP as a base but lots of spark and fuel changes for the heads and cam.
