(IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) seeking knowledge and wisdom from the all mighty "Forum". Collectively ya'll should spot this post, scratch your heads, laugh just a bit and remember when you too had this problem.

I am a shade tree mechanic so please use small words.

car:
1972 914-4 1.7 with stock fuel injection still in use.

Problem:
I start the car and it idles fine cold, as it warms the idle goes up to 2000rpm and even after driving an hour does not come down to a lower idle. The temp outside today in sunny FL is a chilly 72 (f) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

A friend recommended stating with the air temp sensor on top the engine, so I replaced it. No change. Starts and idles at 600-700rpm as it warms the idle goes up to 1800-2000rpm.

I have no clue. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Ideas????
