IAC count, EGR percent,TPS etc.They all have an effect on idle speed and may not set codes in an OBD 1 system.Don’t forget a leaking pcv valve (Too obvious).Also a bad coolant temp sensor or connecter.Try wiggle test on 2 wire connecter near thermostat housing with it running.You may get lucky.Harness has been known to go bad at sensor connecter.

What’s the idle RPM on a Silverado Silverado?
Re: high idle PLEASE HELP!!! When i pull the vac line from the booster the idle rpm stays at the 1200 I had been idling for 2 yrs. It only runs rougher but maintains 1200. When I pull the same line from the back side of the intake she revs really high. Enough to scare you so I plugged it back in really fast.

You may have an intake manifold leak on the bottom side of the engine at the lifter galley (I base this assumption by the fact that when you spray eather into the valve cover it changes the engine speed.) Re: high idle PLEASE HELP!!! You probably have a leak like aste25 mentioned.
