Used fuel injection cleaner, now car idles high. Replaced idle control value and sensor. Replaced throttle body. Car still idle high. Dont understand what to fix to control that problem. Car recommend using higher grade of gas for poor fuel or loss of power.

Scan for codes, check fuel pressure with a gauge and check for a vacuum leak. Auto parts rent the gauges for fp. Clean throttle plate with choke cleaner as well on both sides and iac hole
