Default idle problem...again!

Alright, im havin some idle problems again. Tonight i was just drivin around, pushin my car alil and i missed a gear. When i got home i noticed my idle didn't drop past 1300 - 1400.

I rev'd it up and it went down to 1000 and bounced back up to 1400. I checked for any vac line leakes or maybe something got disconnected, nothin.

I was wonderin if me missing a gear could **** something up with my idle, stupid question but i'm just wonderin.

What else could the problem be?

Check your throttle body or cable to see if it's sticking a little. Also check the TPS sensor. It is very breakage prone(even when the motor is in the car).

Thank you for spelling "idle" correctly. It's about damn time someone did. That's all.
