when truck is in park truck idles at 1500 rpms sorry I am a lady so do not understand terms but trying. What would cause this - I have had the following work done by a friend: cleaned throttle body with throttle body cleaner, replaced idle air contral valve and that is it but still idles high when in park - please help me can not afford much so any help would be great. I appreciate it.

the gasket under the throttle body most likely has a hole in it. try spraying carb cleaner at the base of the throttle body where it bolts to the intake. if it changes the idle then remove the throttle body and replace the gasket. it only costs a couple dollars. while you have the throttle body off clean all the vacuum ports out under neath it.
