Default Car stuck at high idle after long storage period.

I haven't driven or started my CRX in approx 5 months, when i started it the other day I let it warm up to operating tempature but the fast idle never goes down. It'll just stay up around 2500 rpm. The car feel like it runs fine, but the damn idle won't go down, so when I'm sitting at a stop light I look like an idiot.

Anybody know what causes this and a possible fix?

That's the was after about three months. It will go down, just be patient.

Or if it doesnt, check your throttle cable.. one time mine somehow tightened itself on it's own lol.
