Idle sticks around 1200 rpm's

Hi guys, it's been a LOOOOOOOONNGGG time since I have been to any Dodge forums. You know, been busy with work and all. First off, I would like to say kudos, the forum's great.

What I'm having a problem with is that my '03 is very, very slow to come down to an idle once it reaches 1200-1500 rpm's. It did this once before but it cleared itself up and I never worried about it anymore until now.

Anyone ever had this happen? How did you fix the problem?

Yeah, I'm going through this right now as well, although my problem is very intermittant. I *think* mine is an injector problem, but not sure.

Other causes could be dirty/oily/corroded connectors, pinched wiring harness, faulty cam/crank sensors?

Mine did it the first time with the old cp-3 that finally took a crap on me. That was 4 years ago and now it's starting again. I'm kinda halfway leaning towards the FCA on the back of the cp-3.
