232, 221,231 93 244 200

My last post probably led people astray. I fixed the important parts.

93 244 w/ 152K is beginning to run goofy. Idles high, without throttle. In fact, without the pedal depressed the car will cruise at about 20 mph. When I apply the brakes, I fight the engine, which then slowly dies down to what seems to be close to a proper idle.

I checked the vacuum lines and I believe they are all intact, but I will check again today, cause I noticed one line goes under the engine to a location near the air box which I have not yet examined.

I REDID the dianostic check (using the proper pin hole: #2) and I got 232, 221, 231. Where should I go from here? Do I need to do any more diagnostics?
