Dear MW: My car ran fine when I shut it off, then next time
I went to start it, it idled up really high. It sounded like I had my
foot on the gas.
MW:
First, make sure nothing is hitting the throttle pedal. Floor mat, or something else. Check that
the cable is not binding up between the pedal and the engine.
Other than that, sounds like an Idle Air Control Valve problem, carbon on the throttle plate, or
possibly a vacuum leak. You will need a qualified technician to scan and check the IAC system,
and check for vacuum leaks.

I release the clutch.

You could be pinching one of the main dash wiring harnesses
when you push the clutch pedal in. You can remove the lower
dash trim easily enough and look up under there. While moving
the pedal by hand, watch the back and forth action and see if
there is any interference by wiring, brackets, connectors, etc. Has
to be something simple since it only does it when you push the
clutch pedal in. I'd focus in that area. Also, check the negative
battery cable where is bolts to the battery tray. Have seen that
coorde away causing odd electrica problems.
