2000 RPM idle after freeway drive
I have an odd problem that maybe someone has experienced before. This is the second time in about 1 month.
Setup:
See sig, -turbo (NA right now), stock compression, stock cams, stock ecu/injectors
After driving home from work on the freeway, I pull off the exit ramp and my idle is stuck at 2000RPM. I rev it a bit and it barely drops at all. I stopped and let it sit for about a minute or two and the idle dropped to ~800.
The temp was exactly at normal, the fan cycled a couple times while sitting there.
On the freeway, when I would let off the gas to decelerate, sometimes it would feel like it was still getting some gas, or a blip in the throttle.
Any ideas or experiences with this issue?
The freeway was crawling at 50 or so, maybe she was just angry?

Re: 2000 RPM idle after freeway drive
Thanks everyone, looks like I have a small project for the weekend.
I don't think it was the throttle sticking. I pulled up on the gas pedal and the slack in the cable is ok. Could be a bad TPS, but my guess is that is will be the IACV. I have some hunting idle issues when I startup hot and I've never cleaned it before.

The IACV screen was completely clogged. I cleaned it out and now... the idle problems are 100 times worse. The car barely starts and if I even turn the steering wheel it stalls.
I reset the ECU, with no luck.

I unplugged the IACV and set the idle to ~650 with the adjusting screw. It was turned all the way in, probably to compensate for the dirty IACV.
