CEL = P0117 850 1997

ECT sensor will default to very cold readings when it is INOP, causing the engine to run too rich. BUT, it will not cause the engine to idle too high.

You have another problem: Unmetered air entering the intake manifold is the only realistic solution. Start checking the vacuum lines, the leak will be quite large.
