It wasn't doing it when I bought it. Would anyone happen to know what is causing it? It shifts just fine and rides fine other than idling high. I've noticed a change in fuel usage. Any diagrams will help a lot. Thank you!

This can be a fuel injector that has an obstructed spray pattern. Let's run the codes to see if any are stored.
