High Idle?

So todays the last day i run my truck before i do some service on it.

I have a no start when warm condition and after finding out some information i will be replacing the standpipes and dummy plugs. I also got a HPOP service kit so i can crack it open and see whats going on in there. Of course ill check the IPR and ICP as well.
and maybe a gasket/stud job.

But my actual question is, it starts fine, then it idles at around 800-900. but im not sure if this is cause it cold out or cause of my previous problems?

thanks for the help/advice in advance.

Probably... These engines will idle up when its cold out... One of the more knowledgeable guts could tell you exact temps...
