what causes high idle?

Hi there,

I have some problems in fine tuning my 2.0L 914-4. It's equipped with the original d-jetronic, and last winter I did a major service when the motor was out of te car.
Since then, on restarting, I suffer from high idle. I tried everything, checked all hoses and replaced them, all gaskets are replaced with new ones from Pelican, but I seem to search in the wrong direction. I tried an electronic replacement for the condenser, but it gave the same result.
Anyone with a tip for the next step? is it possible that I mis adjusted the valve clearance and is that the reason why the car skips into high idle?
Please help this pour fellow, as I have to do a road trip on 20/5, and with this high idle I don't know if the car is 100% trustable.
Greetings

Marc
