So after getting a code 24 in my car and learning that my maf needed replacement i picked up a used one off a local guy and installed in my car. After clearing my codes and starting it up, it seemed fine, revved ok, i was able to make boost. When i got out onto the road it pulled just as i expected and so i was on my way......not yet.....

After about 5 minutes of driving i noticed while i was shifting between gears something felt different. So i got on the clutch and noticed that my idle was up at like 2500rpm. I pulled over at the closest garage(one i used to work) and tried to figure out what was wrong.

I have codes 31, 32, and 51. Something is telling me its not the code 51 though. I think my throttle body may be sticking open, because if i pull down on the linkage, as to close the throttle body, i can get the idle to drop down closer to normal.

Has anybody had similar issues? Again the car was driving fine, its just idling wayy to high.

I would look into the sticky throttle first. I had a 31 and cleaned the afm connectors and took care of it. Used afm no good maybe?
