need to give some info, make model eng size and yr . Could be alot of things . Do you know how to chek for vacume leaks. If not try wd 40 spray very small quik blasts in small areas around vacume lines see if engine idle raises in any one area then chek that area for cracks or disconnected lines . If vac line are all looking old ,cracked or if they feel real stif when pinched you may need to slowly change one at a time. try this first if no improvement try wd in very quik shots again if eng idles up pinpoint spot and look at gaskets or sensors that may be leaking. The vac line is cheap and may fix .. let us know
