Hi,
My car keeps reving when i'm in traffic or at the lights (this car sometimes be up to 35000 revs).
When i put my foot on the accelerator the revs go back down to what they should normally be.

my battery has also just run flat but i think this is because of the problems with the engine overusing it.

With thottle cleaner, clean your throttle bore, and your IAC valve; you may even have to replace you idle control motor.
