Idling issue w/cel

I have a '92 SVX with a legacy 5spd. Since the swap I have noticed an unusually high idle (1800). I set the TPS at .49 the other night which brought it down to 1400 which is less obnoxious however it's now back up to 2k in traffic. I have looked for a vacuum leak and have not found one. Any ideas?
Also, does anyone know which wires to connect to rid me of my CEL from the swap?

Has anyone messed with the adjustment screws on the throttle body? What code do you have stored?

I haven't tried pulling codes yet...I know it has to do with the swap. Whats the procedure for getting engine codes?
As far as the TB I am unsure. This car was kinda screwed up when I got it, ie: wrecked exhaust, tranny, vacuum leaks, etc. I am slowly working my way down the list.

I got the info on checking the codes. I will get to that later in the week. (freezing rain right now)
