car starts normal fine and then i take a drive somewhere and car will rev up on its own to 3k or even 4k rpm i can let off the gas and coast like im on cruise control if i want it to stop i rev it up a little and drops right back down to normal rpms

check throttle linkage,cruise linkage..any cables.
If that seems ok,you can disconnect the cables and see if the Throttle body 'hangs up' at a certain position.
