Vacuum leaks will cause a high rpm. Hear any whistling noises?

1- there is an adjustable throttle lever stop screw, located right above the throtte return spring. This screw is supposed to be factory set, but you never know.
2- there is another adjustable screw at the fast idle cam. This one is actuated by a plunger, itself actuated by coolant entering and exiting the TB through small 5mm hoses. This screw is also supposed to be factory set. Maybe the plunger itself is stuck in the "cold" position. Maybe even the small coolant passage is clogged with debris, never getting in the hot position. Connect a flex pipe at one end and blow through it to check if the passage is clear.
3- under the TB, right under the TB plate, there is a vacuum port (nipple). Mine is plugged with a inch long rubber cap. Maybe yours fell off, creating a vacuum leak?
I noticed all the above while the TB was on the bench. All you need to do to remove the TB is to disconnect is few hoses, the 2 throttle cables, 4 bolts holding the TB and some connectors. It was worth the 20 minutes for me.
Good luck! Oh Please come back, tell us the outcome !
