High idle!!!
Ok. This is getting annoying. My Jeep was idleing high a few months ago and I thought I fixed it. i know the usual fix is changing the old injector buchings. Well...since I had 3 injectors that where shot, I changed the entire set. Everything was great, until started to get cold. Now almost every time I start, my idle is between 2000 and 3000rpm. Now my ujoint is taking a crap on me too. That is an easy/quick fix so its not really a bit deal to me. But Im pissed that the high idle back.
Any input???

I just pulled my throttle body off and clean it very well and also found one of my intake bolt/nut was loose.... and also I put a clamp on my brake booster hose coming off of the intake...
It all seems good now!!

Search for adjusting your TPS- throttle position sensor we have a few threads about TPS woes on here. That should help your Idol out.

Mine was fine till it got cold out???? But mine was fine when it first started and as soon as I drove it down the road then came to a stop then it would idle at like 2500 rpm.

Prolly a Coincidence. Maybe a power issue you know electricity and cold don't mis so week it could be sending a faulty signal to your TPS. That is a lil far fetched but I have a feeling your TPS is finally kicking the boot. Pretty simple to correct though just need a multimeter and some patience
