install the throttle cable
remove intake arm and check to make sure the throttle body play is stuck/binding or lodge in the open position
only other thing i can think of that would cause this issue is a large vacumm leak'

but install the throttle cable, remove intake and open the throttle plate by move the spring/cable under the good and check for binding issues and so fourth'

when i went with a 70mm throttle body during cold weather conditions my plate would "stick" and rev as well

I think it's the intake manifold/im gasket, it seems to not be tightened enough but I can't get to the bolts to tighten them so ya, I dunno. Haha.
