Idle is Too HIGH!!

I Have a B16A2 (JDM) and it would idle @ 750RPM recently i did a fuel injector flush, and had the timing adjusted! but now when the car is warm my car idles @ 1000-1100 RPM
how can i fix this?? i tried messing around with the throttle cable but no luck.

what else can i do to fix this problem, cuz i think this is why i'm failing emissions on the curb idle test. (HC)

it could be the idler motor ont he intake manifold it senses the heat from the coolant and tell the motor where to idle ..it could get stuck..it is common on b16 engines
