high idle 87 renix xj
Hello all i have run into an issue with my two 1987 cherokees.They Both seem to have an issue where they idle at max rpm's in park or neutral but when in drive they run at normal rpm's. Does anybody have an idea what could be causing this?

Ever since I cleaned my throttle body and the idle air control sensor, my renix idles around 1000-1100 rpms. When I'm in park or neutral it runs high. One day I'm going to replace see if that helps.

Before you start bending brackets take a look at Cruisers tips, you need to do these on your Renix, don't skip any either.
