I got it fixed like an hour ago, it was stucked at gas pedal. Green plastic insert was loose and didn't allow cable to return to normal idle position. lubed all the moving components with 3in1 at same time. Now it's idling at 750 rpm or so. So much for dealer ship, in my opinion they never fixed anything right without ripping me off first.
Thanks for your input!

GREAT!
Nice find. I wonder how many others have this problem and not realize it.
Cheers!

Yeah, I had same type of problem with my 92F150XLT but didn't get around to fix that truck. I told the buyer that it was how it is according to dealer ship! My 87F150XLT doesn't have this problem however.
