Check the throttle cable, timing and the fast idle mechanism. If you can press upwards on the front throttle linkage and it lowers the idle then that should tell you something.

Vacuum leaks, BAC idle speed adjuster, decel dashpots holding the throttle open.
Lastly, the idle speed adjuster on throttle body (throttle plate shaft stop)
