Re: high idle
 
The only thing I can think of that would be affected so much by just
letting the clutch pedal out in neutral would be that the body has lost
it's ground and is stealing one through the clutch pedal. I have seen
that happen with the brake pedal and gas pedal and gear shift and radio
and... anyway.

There should be a wire mesh strap that runs from the rear of the engine
head to the firewall. This does go bad.

It doesn't sound like the choke is working proper either, but that would
have no bearing on the position of the clutch pedal...

A carb kit is only about $20.00 or so and is easy to put in them.
