I wrote this question. Found a small rag jammed into the throttle body, obstructing the butterfly valve. WOW. Glad it didn't get sucked into a cylinder. And no, this was not my fault. I bought the car used and this is exactly how I found it when I yanked off the TB. Engine idles at proper speed now. A little rough at times, but I bet changing the 02 sensors will cure that.
