'93 940 Rex-Regina - Gradual Rise to Too-high Idle 900

Dear Spook,

May this find you in good spirits.

I suggest you (1) be sure the TPS is providing the ground to the ECU when your foot isn't on the footfeed by back probing the ECU pin 2 (orange wire?) with an LED test light and then, if that is working every time, (2) be certain the high idle air is being provided by the IACV by blocking the bypass hose.

(1) The TPS "click" can't be trusted after almost 30 years to guarantee electrical function.

(2) Throttle wear and adjustment error can provide idle air beyond the ability of the IACV to close it off.
