Should have a carburetor so all you have to do is turn the idle screw down some on the carb.

How do you make it so your caddillac catera doesnt idle so high?

Somewhere on your vehicles throttle body (which should be at the point where your intake tube ends) there should be an adjustment screw that adjusts the idle. Turn it clockwise to slow the idle, turn ccw to speed it up.However, I tampered with the idle on my vehicle and the computer just re-adjusted it shortly afterward and it began idling high again.I would honestly recommend that you take it to a trained professional mechanic. Preferably, a caddy specialist.
