racing engine after accident

1998 Wrangler With 4.0, 5-speed Manual Trans. Was Involved In A Front End Accident. Now When Started, The Engine Races At A Hi Rpm. Any Ideas?

Could be several things, IMO, including bent linkage which makes the throttle add power, bad sensor(s), or even a vacuum problem.

How bad was the accident? How far in was the front end pushed?

Also, moving to the Wrangler section; you'll get better response there.
