00 Lincoln LS V8

While driving the car on some rough backroads, all of a sudden the car wants
to idle at about 3000 RPM. When I pulled to a stop sign I had to stand on
the brakes to hold it back. Turned it off in the driveway and tried
restarting and still idleing at 3000. What could cause this???

TPS was a SUGGESTION, dumbass.  Do I care if it's something else
causing his problem?  Not as much as you.  I guess you didn't notice
that your SUGGESTION was somewhat off target as well.  "Stuck IAC"
would have been more accurate.  "Vacuum leak" is way to general.

I'm not a professional auto mechanic and never claimed to be, unlike
yourself.  When do you actually repair any vehicles if you spend all
your time here trolling?  Sure enough, all book knowledge and no
experience.

That's what we call a "WANNABE" in America (that's America as in NORTH
AMERICA), dumbass.

Question retard, how do you spell VACUUM?

bing, you lose

This clown is a mechanic?

So... what?, you've got your grade 12 and a few years of tech school?  Your
parents must be sooo proud.

Bullshit!

I've disconnected the TP sensor and started my car and the idle jumps
up to at least 2200 RPM.

Not 3000 RPM as the poster indicated but engines differ.

Damn, some technician you are

here i can make ya look even dumber

duhhhhh ever do a stall test to a torque converter??

2000 is diffrent than 3000
your car was STARTED with dissconnected
its running on last start up data

its a program TARD what the f.ck do you think the reprograming
tsbs are for

the puter will rely on other data and disreguard the bogus info
or LACK of input on the part of the tps

f.ck dude
flash programming has been around since the 90s
get with the program

So for all your training and ... uhm ... whatnot ... you can say for
sure that a loose TPS connection cannot be the cause of one's idle
(warning: five syllables ahead) intermittently jumping up to 3000 RPMs
on a bumpy road?

DING DING DING!!

Idle air control valve is correct. Smacked it with a hammer and it let loose
and now it's running fine. Thanks for the replies.

You propably should replace it or at least try to clean it.
If it stuck once, it will probably do so again.

What's the procedure to clean it and what do I use to clean it. Ford says to
replace it , but that's what I expected to hear from them. I checked the
price and I think I want to try cleaning it first. Thanks!
