How long does it stay at 2k rpms? Forever, or for a few seconds? A few seconds is normal. Forever is not.

Mine did that and a little more - was idle air control valve, and could not get ECM to memorize new one, ended up replacing ECM as well (got ECM and a used IACV as a set from same donor truck, and it worked). Hope you just have cleaning and maybe a new IACV.
