Question type: Maintenance & Repair
Been experiencing a high idle issue when my 91 300E is warm/hot. Revs up to 1500rpm and will rev down to 1000rpm when hit the gas pedal but will climb back right back up to 1500 and stay until put in D gear. Any advice?

most common is vacuum leak,could be any hose on intake,idle motor might be stuck,but I would check for leaks first,inspect,and listen for hissing noise,to only rev it up 800 rpm its probably small.
Not yet it don't mis there has to be a idle air valve ... I was thinking that's what airctemp sensor did. ..I tested A.I.T.Sensor shows no ohms
