fast idle 5.0

My '89 F150 idles fine when I start it, but when it warms up it idles @2000rpm or more. If I turn off the engine and restart it warm, it idles fine from then on out. Does that sound like a TPS gone bad?

That would probably be a good place to start. If you do an advanced search by TPS or Throttle Position Sensor you can probably find the test procedure. I would say you could specically look for post by EPNCSU2006 and fefarms and you should find it.
