check the fast idle thermal valve.its on the bottom of the thottle body. take the plate off the side and screw the round plastic piece all the way in, then 1/4 turn out.

checking the fast idle valve is definetley good suggestion. where i work we get cars coming in all the time in limp mode (reving up and down between 1 and 2 k). just take one screw off the top and loosen the other and swing the cover out of the way. then get a flat head and put it in the slot and turn it clock wise (do not over tighten it) that platic peice inside just loosens up overtime

what happens if you over tighten though?????
i've just seen people do the hulk turn of a screw driver and brake so much stuff so i figure if i tell u dont over tighten it u'll be more careful about it. i havent broken one and i dont know of ne one who has i'd just hate for someone to brake something like and have to go spend money on what could have been a simple/free fix.
