Tell him to bleed his cooling system some more. Make sure the heater control is all the way to 'hot' because air bubles like to hang out in the heater core.

Whan an air pocket gets to the FITV it can make the idle speed go up. When an air pocket gets to the ECT sensor it gives a bogus measurement to the ECM.
