high idle

don't know about rpm's should be at 800-1000 but years ago I had a 84' and it was doing the same thing found that the factory ground strap had to many ohm's and was braking down so I replaced it will a new one and all problems went away so I all so replaced all the others one truck as to not bit me in the *** and that is what I have done to all the trucks I've had since the factory one will not last long if it moves around and gets dirt and salt on it a good ground is what need to work as they should:bananarb:
