The high idle is fixed! (temporarily anyway). All the new hoses helped a lot, but the real culprit was the AAV. I "tapped" it a lot and it helped. I suspect I'll have to change it out when I can find one at a reasonable price. Since
the rpm is down now, I can go ahead and time it closer to what it's supposed to be.
I want to thank everyone again who gave me advice. Next, on to the transmission leak....
