Thanks. I pulled the pin connector off and everything seemed OK. I reconnected it and restarted with no change.

A few possibilities, one is the WUR as described, you want to check the relay to see if it is buggered, I had the same high idle problem last summer, changed out all sorts of components (AAV and AAR) as well as the WUR and finally tried the relay. Problem went away. Just get another one and put it in place and see what happens.

If that fails, then there is the AAR (odd sort of part on the RHS of the engine, big pipes of about 1 cm ID going to it, between #3 and # 4 cylinder, right down by the head). It has a thermostatic element that leaks air when the engine is cold and it can stick open. Easy test is to just disconnect it and plug both openings (engine warm) and see if the idle settles down. If so, then it is bad and needs to be replaced.
