Any thoughts on this?

When I come back from track sessions the revs usually go up on their own, drifts up to about 3k on idle out of gear.

The car is usually quite hot if that makes a difference.

I've had a similar problem with the KA, I cleaned the sensor on the top of the fannymould... has seemed to have cleared it. Think it's the idle control valce!

Yeah on the kak its one of the sensors on the inlet. I just removed them and put some electrical contactor cleaner and seemed to have fixed it.

Embarrasing being in traffic with a kak revving its ass off!
