Have you checked the throttle cable to see if it's binding or it it may  be 
dirty enough inside the conduit that it's movement is affected?

Subject: Re: Link mk1 - High idle  problem




TPS signal is ok.  The * is there at idle  and goes away as soon as I touch 
the pedal.  It comes back after blipping  the throttle, so TPS should be ok.
I checked all lines and found no vacuum  leaks.
Cleaned both grounds on the RH side of the engine.  Didn't do  the one near 
the dipstick as it was a tad too hot there   Will do so  next week (leaving for 
a Disney weekend in the morning).
 
It never goes in row 2 when this is  happening.  Blip the throttle and 2 out 
of 3 times, it goes to 2K  rpm and just hangs in zone 115.   
When I blip the throttle and it does come down,  it drops to 1500 rpm, goes 
back up to 2K, hangs there for a second or 2 and  then falls back to 1500 and 
than slowly to normal idle.  
 
Other thing I noticed is that just touching the  accelerator makes it go up 
to 2K all by itself.  Sometimes it comes back  down, sometimes it doesn't ...
 
Fuel zones at idle are set according to the  manual and have worked fine 
since I bought the ECU, about 6-7 years ago or so,  Bill?
 
BTW Bill, are there still chips available for  this ECU?
