engine races in park

My 1999 150 XLT Triton V8. At times when put in park will rev to 2000 R.P.M & probably go higher if I do not cut the ignition. I will then restart & truck will be fine for a weak or longer. Hope some one has a clue. Thanks

It sounds like your IAC (Idle Air Control) might be sticking. You can try cleaning it but replacing it is usually a better idea.
