Re: 1988 ford f-150 idle problem

have you tried the Throttle Positioning sensor ----

I did have a truck one time that the idle went real high, it was the power brake booster went bad, and the lack of vacuum made it idle high, the mechanic took the vac line off to the booster and pluged it off, and the idle went right back to where it should have been ---------
