Default High Idle???
Hey guys, I am now addicted to this forum. I have a pretty much stock '90 Gt manual and normally it idles fine but every once in a while after driving I take it out of gear while stopped and it stays at 2500 rpms. Any idea how what the problem could be? thanks

It's the cable attached to the throttle body on the bottom side of it.
