Engine revving out of control

Engine revving out of control
My 3.4 out of a '96 Limited is revving out of control. It was swapped into my '91 5sp. The ECU is for auto, but I don't think that's the problem. For the past couple of weeks, the idle has been around 400 RPM, I finally wired in my post/cat O2 sensor, and re-tightened all exhaust bolts, that fixed the low idle. But now it starts at 1800 RPM, and the longer it runs, the higher it starts to idle, like to 3k. I need help now, I can't let this truck go down for any length of time, it's a dd.

Longshot I know but.......mine did a simliar thing when i first fired it up. First i would check all the vacuum lines for leaks. Grab some starter fluid and spray everywhere. Increase in idle indicated a leak.
Mine was not a leak but the throttle cable. I at first, tried to use the 3.4 throttle cable and no matter how I adjusted it, it would never work correctly. I swapped the 3.0 stock cable back on and had no issues.

the truck has been running fine for over 3 weeks, this just started, and come to find out that I hadn't tightened the throttle cable to the bracket. I adjusted that and my idle returned to 450 after warm up. I still need to replace my post/cat O2 sensor, but would it cause the misfire codes?

engine codes are for multiple cylinder misfire, then a code for a misfire on each cylinder, and bad O2 sensor. Can a bad O2 cause this?
