: My car idles fine when it is first started and warming up. However, once the engine reaches full operating temperature, the idle goes up to 1500 rpm. This only happens when outside air temperature is below 45 F (7 C). Can anyone help?


check the airflow meter... i had an 1986 with the same problem and the airflow meter was the problem. also check the idle control valve
