Occassionally, when I would start the car or put it in park, the idle would rev to 2500-3000 rpm. I did some research and foubnd out that the idle air control valve regulates that. I bought a new one and installed it. Everything was fine for about 3 weeks. Now, almost everytime I start the car or put it in park, the idle revs to that same rpm. Any idea what it could be? What and how do I check something else? Thank-you for your time.
