Subject: sudden fast idling

My 1986 stick shift vanagon has suddenly started idling extremely fast
2500-3000 rpm. Doesn't seem to be a stuck throttle. When started without
touching the gas pedal it idles normally, 950 rpm, but once you have touched
the gas it idles fast until it is switched off and restarted. Any
suggestions
where I should begin looking for the problem?

Thanks!
