My car just failed at motor vehicles because of a high ildle. It is funny because I got an oil change right before I went to get it inspected and I noticed after the oil change that my car seemed to be driving funny. I just tapped the accelerator and the car seemed to go a lot faster on its own. I have never noticed this before the oil change. I guess my main question is how is this fixed and how much the repairs of a high ildle would be for my car. Thank you!

I think that one of your vacuum hoses may have a crack in it or even be disconnected, look very very good for any unhooked hoses or hoses with holes or cracks in it and just replace it. They are long skinny black hoses usually comming off of the manifold
