    by timing do you mean the idle speed? my guess would be throttle somehow stuck open a bit or not closing completly maybe?

    Or the Idle control valve has some carbon built up in it and is sticking open...

    Try a ECU Reset via Disconnecting the battery for 5 mins then reconnecting it and Starting the car and holding the revs at 3000rpm for 30 sec.

    Also as Mischa Said could be the TB Butterfly held open do a Visual inspection see if its stuck or not...

    Also with the visual check the Throt Cable isnt cought up or the nuts havnt come loose or somthing like that.
