Strange Problem #2, idles from 750 to 1500

OK, if you're unfamiliar with the problem, read this https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/...ML/006748.html

Here's what I've found. Timing is correct, all cylinders seem to be firing just fine. I have fuel supply.

The car idles at a consistent 750 now when cold. As the car warms up, it jumps up to 1500. If I lower the idle screw, the idle will drop and the car will die.

There is also a lack of over all power, although I haven't driven the car.

What do I do?
