Engine Performance problem
1995 Mazda Protege 4 cyl Automatic 144 + miles

When i start my car it idles high...i let it run a while and it slowly idles down. It idles up & down when i come to a stop. It also hesitates when driving above 70 miles per hour on the highway.
What is wrong with my car? How can it be resolved?

Try cleaning out the idle air control valve and test the throttle position sensor-also airflow meter
