1996 Mitsubishi Sigma V6 3.0L automatic erratic idle speed. This vehicle has suddenly started revving at about 2,000 RPM when you start it up. After a while, it slows down a bit, but hunts from about 1000-1500 or 1500-2000 RPM when in neutral
possible vacuum leak in the intake manifold to cylinder head junction (gasket) by spraying with injector/carb cleaner. If the RPM changes while spraying, leak is confirmed;
tear/damage on the air filter/cleaner;
air filter/cleaner housing might not be seated properly;
other vacuum hoses, ports including the line to the hydrovac.
Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.
Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.
