Also what is the normal idle speed for the motor? It runs at about 1200-1300rpm during warmup, and idles at 0mph in drive at about 700.

That sounds about right. You do want to get a scanner to see what the ECM is reading anyway if you want to adjust the idle and TPS. Your tach could be wrong. I know my ECM data matches the snap on gauge I hooked onto the wire but may differ from the stock tach.
