just thought, my car ran like shit until I loosened the dizzy and set it right about the middle, even had a high idle, so that seems like a plausible solution and free at that, id clean the iacv, iat, and check tps, then check wiring on those like suspended hatch said, and maybe try resetting the ignition timing, after I roughly adjusted mine it quit idling high and pretty much stopped being a bitch...I still haven't dialed it in due to lack of timing light, but I haven't driven it yet nor is it ready to be driven so ill get to that eventually, I really hope that helps.
