Does it hesitate?

Possible vacuum leak. Listen under the hood, can you hear a hissing sound?

Also, start car, and spray wd-40 on common leak points: injector O-rings, intake manifold gaskets, idle air control circuit and the throttle shaft.. If idle stumbles or changes.... you have an intake leak

Other than that, may be a bunch of things... Need more info. Descibe your symptoms better

try adjusting the fast idle screw in the throttle body , if it does not stop you probably have a vacyume leak , there are really common with the sohc's the 3/16ths vacume hosing sucks....
