Default High idle?

I purchased a 86 951 today what an improvement over my n/a. I noticed after a long drive when the car was hot it idled kind of high ~2k rpm any idea what it could be? My dad suggested vacuum leak, but where would it likely leak so i know where to take a look? Also anyone out there have the part of the intake that goes from the fenderwell to the airbox mine is missing?

Your missing the snorkle?

Damn, you MUST be sucking it really hot air.

The TPS may be off.........here are a few things:

Here is a link for the TPS (the likely cause of the high idle):

Also, try the rennlist classifieds, buying it used from someone personally is ALWAYS cheaper than a dismantler
