RPM's stuck high
Sometimes my rpms get stuck at 2500ish and just sit there revving high. Then I tap the gas and it will go back down. any ideas?

I would also clean the throttle body and make sure all the cables/linkage aren't binding.

*XX2 on what xj wheeler said about binding.. cables can fray as they age, or it might need some lube. Post what you find out.
