High (Accelerating) idle
Hello,
I have an '03 Neon ES (2.0) with 153000 on it.
I recently changed the head gasket. I also changed the timing belt/tensioner, water pump, drive belts, plugs/wires, and finished with an oil change. This morning I got it all back together and started it up. It started great, but was idling very high, and seemed to be accelerating. I think I am hearing a hiss (vac leak?) but I don't want to let it run too long like it is in order to find the leak. Any thoughts on what might be the problem? I had thought maybe the throttle cable had gotten kinked, but the throttle plate looks closed (car off and air filter out). Everything is connected as it should be.
Thanks for your help.
