Sometimes my car will randomly decide that it needs to idle at anywhere from 2500-3800 RPM. If you blip the throttle all the way open, the rpm's spike, drop to normal then go back to where they were. I.E. 3500 to 4500 to 1400 back to 3600. I've messed with the throttle linkage, and that's fine. The butterfly closes all the way, but the idle is unreal.
My car's idle is all screwed up.

yes and no. i would do it most of the time, but there are freak occurances when it wouldnt. if its a vacuum leak, if the hose is loose and it hits metal obstructing its flow for a min, it wont. etc
pop your hood and make sure every hose goes somewhere.

check all the lines man before you go ripping into her. i had a rough idle when i had a leak but not freaky high like you. when did your new intakes go on? if it's been a while i really doubt it's an intake gasket problem but brandon would know bette rthan me. you haven't messed with your maf or piping recently right?

My car idles at 2500 rpms when I turn my car on, but after I tap on the gas it runs fine, I never thought to check the hoses. Could that be the problem :-?

:evil: my car idles at around 1500 but i think that's the choke working fine...i don't press the gas pedal though, i just let it idle down by itself.
