Sometimes the idle air control valves get stuck. You can check this
scenario by pinching off one of the hoses to the valve with a needle
nose pliers. If the idle slows when you do this, suspect the idle
valve. Sometimes they just gunk up with intake deposits, and
sometimes the springs break or weaken.
