I got and idle problem with my stang. When i start it up the car idles just fine. After about 5 minutes of driving engine revs up to about 1500 rpm then to 2000 rpm. I turn the car off and turn it back on and the idle goes back to normal. I cleaned the air bypass valve with carb cleaner, but it hasnt made a difference. O2 sensors are new along with fuel regulator. Any suggestions??

Check the accelerator cable linkage directly underneath EGR spacer. I have the same problem. I noticed that I am missing the clip ( ford part #9D726) that holds the other cable( ford part #9A825) in place. My engine never raced prior to losing that clip.

Any other ideas?

When it idles high, unplug the tps, is the idle comes down with it unplugged, try adjusting or replacing tps. (Thats what happened to my 87 gt, same issues.

I will try that, but also about 3 weeks back i had a short which i took care of, but when i pulled the codes and i got a 40 and a 12. I know the read that the 12 is for idle speed solenoid. Thats the reason why i cleaned the IAB. Also on deceleration the engine hesitates. When i throttle up it feels fine.

if it hesitates on deceleration then its probably the accelerator cable linkage.

I unplugged the TPS and it started to Idle fine, but i got a check engine Light. So it is the TPS. How is the tps adjusted??
