high/jumping idle. Help.
After warming up and just sitting there, my idle is pretty high. At 1k rpm's? Also it jumps up and down from 1k-1700 rpm's. I need help someone! I have no idea what it is and how to fix it. It's a 98 ek. Thanks.

Well, I actually just had this problem.
Is it boosted?
Mine is and my problem was it was too rich @ idle.
Leaned it out, and the RPM's stay at a steady 900.
Also, carbon build-up played a key issue.
Seafoam your engine, it won't hurt anything, and at <$20 it's a good investment for your engine anyhow.
