vacuum leak. Aux air valve is not closing or decel valve is sticking. Maybe also the vacuum unit is not retarding the timing.

Hey Tman, Is that your boxer? Whats the shirt say?

Look for the small hose off on the decel valve. If the end is frayed, cut it off to expose new hose that will stay on better.

just a thought...it could also be your TPS. If you're not getting to the idle setting on the tps, the idle adjustment setting on the ECU won't have any effect.

One check for the TPS: With the key turned to accessory, slowly press the accelerator to the floor...you should hear exactly 20 clicks.

(for the record, got that from George's tech tips 700 book.)
