Fast idle
93 F150, 5.8 liter, E4od. When I put it in park, the engine doesn’t idle down. Have to kill it with engine racing. Any thoughts on this, I don’t see anything mechanically wrong. Maybe an electric problem.

Sounds like a large vacuum leak. What happens when you unplug the idle air control motor?
