i got a pretty much trashed 91 eclipse it had jumped time bent all intake valves and i have no idea what else that guy screwed up . i had head reworked new valves ect reset timing and put motor back together now car will start but will not idle and when its running it revs all the way to red line throtle is not stuck open any ideas would be apprechiated
 
Have you messed with the idle screw? If you know your throttle plate is completely closed and the car still red lines, then your getting air somewhere such as from the idle speed control or somewhere else past the throttle.

Look below the intake manifold. A vacuum hose should go there. If it is not there, that could be the culprit you your leak.
 
you guys are alot of help thanks alot , i pulled the throttle body and discovered no gaskets so i put in gaskets and tested the idle senson the plug tested at 284 that means replace the sensor correst ???
