To your list, add the airflow potentiometer. If it wears, it will make the engine idle high.
I removed mine to inspect it, and when I reinstalled, my aligment was a tad off, resulting in high idle. Obviously your pot. has not moved, but it may be worn out.
Several forum members have discussed the function and failure of this part at length.
