What year tibby is that?
Your wires shouldn't be tight unless they were messed with, if anything they would be come looser. Usually something like that would be cause by your MAF or intake setup. Check your MAF sensor(s) to see if they are damaged or dirty. Also for damaged vacuum hoses. Is your air intake stock?
If anyone has a comment on what I said please let me know. What is the part that controls the idle air? IAC? Could be that.

He installed a direct port system, so he had it (the throttle body) off. Tibboy, your throttle cable should be loose enough so that the cable has play in it. Do NOT make it tight. That will cause your throttle plate to open slightly, raising your idle. I put the bbtb on mine and have since spent much time working on it. Hey, you gonna be headin south at all this weekend? If so, swing by Ames and I can take a look at it as well as the dp setup. Might be able to help.
