Fast idle on start up 240-260 1983

ICQ>

Bricksters,

My 240 turbo B21ft, idles about 2000 rpm when started, after about 5 minutes it will return to set idle speed of around 900 rpm.

I set the idle per Bentleys, I replaced all sensors on the intake side of engine, new gasket, idle control valve, replaced all vaccum hoses, has year old wiring harness, intake was bead blasted, co2 within specs. It did not do this befor I did all this work.

Im at a loss, what have I missed, any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!

1983 240 turbo upgraded inter & water cooled.
