A 1992 Chevy van with a 4.3L engine may idle high due to several factors, including a vacuum leak, which can introduce extra air into the intake system, or a malfunctioning idle air control (IAC) valve that fails to regulate airflow properly. Additionally, a sticking throttle body, a faulty throttle position sensor, or issues with the engine's sensors can contribute to elevated idle speeds. It's important to inspect the vacuum lines, IAC, and throttle components for any signs of wear or damage. Regular maintenance and diagnostics can help identify and resolve the underlying issue.

On a 2001 Chevy Lumina with a V6 engine, the high-speed idle control is typically managed by the throttle body assembly. The idle air control (IAC) valve, located on the throttle body, regulates airflow and adjusts the engine's idle speed. You can find the throttle body on the intake manifold, near the front of the engine, connected to the air intake system.
probably got a bad IAC motor
Check throttle positioning sensor.
ford suck. go Chevy
The idle speed is computer controlled on a LT1 engine. If it is a little high, try checking for vacuum leaks.
Check the motor mounts.
engine idle set too high or the timing is off and needs reset.
you need the fast idle adjusted on the engine you may have idle set where it sounds fine in idle but not high enuff when dropped in gear.
Engine idle too high.
