    Idle running really high

    Hi everyone the car is running a really high idle. I’m
    Stumped and need opinions. It’s a 302 mass air car. Just had it tuned at diagos drive fantastic took it racing the next day after the first pass idle spiked I replaced the iac with a used one I had it ran great on my way to work yesterday idle spiked again. I have new coolant temp
    Sensor tps is adjusted if I disconnect iac the idle drops checked for vacuum leaks everything checks out. I replaced the iac again and it didn’t change anything this time. It’s a new Motorsport harness so I’m not sure what to do I want to enjoy the car for a few more weeks since it’s been down all summer but I want it running normal again

    Seen similar issue with aftermarket coolant temp sensor or broken wire in the harness.

    I stripped a bunch of factory intakes not long ago I will
    Check one of the used ones and see if that fixed it up. The new one is a standard one

    Not sure if still available or not but Ford had introduced a newer style sensor and pigtail for the 5.0 push rod

    -any chance upper intake is sitting tipped, either it or vac port hitting intake?
    -does throttle body blade have a drilled hole it's not suppose to have?
    -sure egr is fully closed (if equipped)?
