Default Idles High how come?

Idle sticks high sometimes and takes 2 or 3 minutes to come back down to normal. Any ideas whats causing this?

A search will come up with the IAC.(Idle Air Control Valve) I'll bet yours is dirty or worn out.Clean or replace.

haha lol. Nice now that you found where i keep my sarcasim its attaced to the upper intake. Its coming off the front. Take off ur IAC line and spray some carb cleaner or sea foam through there and you should be good to go.
