Check all of your vacuum lines for leaks, you can spray carb cleaner around all of the vacuum line if it revs higher then you found a leak (be careful). You can also try cleaning out the intake air sensor as that controls the vacuum, pull it off spray some carb cleaner in it then blow it out with an air hose. If it's the same as my car it will be in the intake close to the fans for the radiator. Just some cheap easy things to check.
