93 Old's Random Idle
Well now im at a loss. my car for the past 2 months has been randomly idling high, i haved replaced the TPS and the MAF LIM and the UIM and it still has a high idle the i replaced the IAC 2 years ago and it seems to be working, i only say this because the car is not at a constant high idle it will come back down after a few seconds or minutes... My friends thinks it has somthing to do with the 160 tstat i put in my car about a year ago he said it might be kicking into open loop or also the EGR could be getting stuck open..
i was wondering if anyone had any ideas?
i was thinking bad TPS or a bad PCM
the tps i bought was a non adjustable from autozone and im sure it was a cardoom so im gonna have to test it the hard way being no scanner will read my car but the paperclip and flashing codes still works
oh and i dont have any codes saved if that helps..

How long since the throttle body has been cleaned? Maybe the throttle plate is gunked up and occasionally sticking open? Some other things to check include: vacuum leaks, PCM ground, fuel in FPR hose, PCV valve.
