truck idles fast

[troopv]

I disconnected the battery in my 97 Ford Ranger to replaced the thermostat. Now the truck idles fast.
I can travel down the street at 45 mph and not put my foot on the gas pedal. What should I look for to fix the fast idle?

what is the engine? and has your check engine light come on?, this happened to my 2.3l i4 and it was a build up of carbon on my Idle Air Control (IAC) valve, i took it in, to a shop they diagnosed and got it cleaned and it worked and my idle when back.
