I would suspect a vacuum (intake tract) leak.  That would cause your 
fuel adjustment to be rich to compensate for the extra air, which I 
think would lead to high CO at other rpms/loads than idle.  Be sure to 
check under things, all the molded rubber bits that go bad always seem 
to do so where you can't see easily.

A prime culprit, by the way, is the four way molded bit that goes from 
the ISV to the IM, it sucks flat at idle when it is older, and this 
tends to make a nasty crack in it.
