MY car will not idle properly. It sat about a year and a half and now that I am ready to use it again, it runs great, however, at idle, it varies from 1000 - 2000 RPMs. TPS???? or another sensor. I dont have the means to test the sensors. Hope u can help. ..

Since you did drive it for so long, I think the IAC valve has carbon build up, is the CEL on? is the coolant level ok?
