Default My RPM goes wild on park & neutral.

for some reason it jumps to 2000 rpm & stays there & sometimes it go up & down accelerates & deccelerates on its own but its normal at drive or reverse. any reasons why?

DRfrank is right, but thats only to get the car to operating temp. when you first crank it. If its doing it at operating temp you might wanna check the trottle cable.

sounds like your computer is searching. try resetting your idle to spec.
