yeah i dont see how poppin some dents can raise your idle speed i woulddef. put some pressure on this guy and MAKE him fix whatever he messed with ← thanks for the help people. what ended up happening was i told the guy to fix it and i will pay him next week because i didnt have any money. he takes out my TPS, tells me he is going to his friends auto shop to get it replaced (for 140 dollars of course). He comes back within 15 minutes with the alledged new TPS. But what he didnt know is that i put a tiny mark with a sharpie on the back of the TPS sensor to be able to identify it. He pulls out the "new" tps sensor, and it obviously is the one that i marked. Told the *BLEEP* to fix it and get the *BLEEP* outta my sight. i told him if he didnt i would report him to the BBB, he fixed it.

I was having some dents in my 93' LS 400 removed by a shady body repair man, and I am afraid that in the process he might have messed with some stuff under my hood in the hopes of making an easy buck. The problem, which appeared out of no where and wasnt there when I drove the car 10 minutes prior, is my car idles at around 3000RPM when its in park and gives off a rich exhaust fume. The repair man told me with great certanty it was a "heat sensor" problem and said he can buy a new one for 140.00USD. Anybody know what the real problem is or what he might have done to my car behind my back? Any help is grealy appreciated.
