my rpm idles at 2000, and sometimes changes after its warmed up... someone said it could be my idle positioning sensor, any suggestions?

Friend's 88 GT idles at 15 to 1600. We changed the IPS and something else, but it still does it. May not be your problem. How's it change after warmup?

well after it warms up it goes down to 1500 but it varies and will go back up to 2000 sometimes even 2500

take some throttle body cleaner and with the car idling, spray it around the base of the intake manifold, the throttle body, your vacuum lines and see if anything is leaking by listening for your idle to change while you're spraying.
