Looking for some help/tips!

I recently had the clutch in my 98 Eclipse changed. Now the car will high idle when in neutral, about 3k rpm. When in neutral I pull the pedal back and it goes back down to normal. If I pull it too far back the car will turn off. Has anyone had this issue before? Car is stock or at least that’s what the guy I got it from said.

Check the throttle cable at the manifold. Something isn't right and likely at that end. Additionally if it dies you may have two problems. Make sure the throttle is closed. If it doesn't idle then you've got a leak or something wrong in the idle control. Leak is more likely considering somebody just messed with it.
