Your high idle might be caused by a stuck AAV. Does the idle go real high when cold starting, and then settle to 1500 rpm, or is it just always at 1500?

Heck Eric after awhile your hands will just go right to this little screw...even if you are half asleep. This is the guy you have to adjust to set idle for timing etc...It's kind of like the "muscle memory" for unhooking bra clasps..
