Default hanging idle

Guys,

I have a hanging idle in park when I rev the engine it goes up to whatever then stops for a second or two between 1200-1500 prior to it dropping to my idle at 775.......I did my research and did see what should be done and I just loaded a few updates(have not tested yet as I am working) but what is the main source or change that typically helps this most? Timing around the lower rpms, throttle follower, base idle airflow??? I had an updated tune due to the addition of a SC on a dyno, but I physically removed my MAF and that seemed to change things slightly......So I will certainly try what I found out so far, but any feedback is welcomed...Thanks

THE VERY FIRST THINGS TO DO ARE:

1. Check for any un-metered air entering the engine
2. Vacuum leaks.

Check your long and short fuel trims. Report what they are.

Thanks for the link... This is for dirving around though...I have this issue in park....I will see if I can do the same with the throttle follower..To be honest I need to verify if it does this in drive. I did not notice it, but maybe its there as well...Thanks
