RMARIANI - Have you tried this? While it is idling high, disconnect the Idle Air Bypass Valve. If the engine idles down, you know it is the computer. I've never heard of a vacuum problem making the computer increase the idle speed. And there is no reason for it to either. If the computer is causing the motor to idle high, it is either incorrectly set TPS. Or a ground problem somewhere between your TPS and your computer. Best place for that problem to occur is the connector that GreenLX was talking about. I have cleaned my connector and have no more problems at all. I am almost positive that this is the problem.
