I had the problem with my throttle position sensor. If that happens again, leave your engine on and look under the hood at the throttle body. You should find the tps with 3 wires coming out of it... shake it a little to see if the rpm goes down. If so, it's time to replace it.

The TPS is on the front side of the TB. Its a little black plastic thingie, it sits at an angle and there are 2 screws holding it in.
