[V8] 1993 V8 - will not idle properly

[bkrussow at comcast.net]

W, 



Is it possible that the bearings for the throttle rod are corroded and binding. It is under the intake manifold, runs from the front to the back of the engine  and is known to get stuck. Can you see if the throttle is free and working properly?

I have a 1993 V8, 180,000 miles, in very, very good condition. Two days ago 
it suddenly started idling high as if the engine has a mind of its own. The 
idle will go from 1100 rpm to 2800 on its own.
