(resolved) would a bad o2 cause high idle?

Okay I have another high idle thread. I have searched and tried everything. Now I just loosened (sp) the cable that seemed to work right away but I havent went for a drive.

Usually when I slow down it sits around 2k for 5-10 seconds then drops to normal.

I have weird o2 voltage and I am getting a new one tomarrow (had to order it since I was not going to use an universal one) but will that cause a messed up idle?

I will also change plugs agian and put some new wires on tomarrow. Im just lost. Am I chasing down the right leads.

Plus I have done everything else from BLT vacuum test and all the good stuff. I know the ECU is good I just had the caps changed a month ago when I purchased LINK.

let me know what you guys think.
 
I will find out if the throttle cable did the trick.

It breaks up at low throttle and 1992awdlaser says it looks funny. So I will get a new one tomarrow with new plugs and wires. I will update tomarrow.
 
The throttle cables did the trick. Also a new o2 and plugs. The other plugs smelled a bit like fuel.
