It's obviously a vac leak.

Seriously though more information might help us figure this out.

well i got this ford truck and it has a 460 with a edelbrock carb and the truck is idling high and sputtering after i turn the switch off. It is hard to start back but at time then sometimes it idles fine and low just right. Well i took the idle screw out some to see if thats it and hell its still high and running by its self with no screw at all WTF ????

i checked to see if the dist was loose and it wasnt and it will be normal idle sometimes and perr so nice then it goes high sometimes like the idle or timing change by it self
