At idle you should see around 4.6 volts, and at full throttle around 0.6, or it could be the other way around, as I've forgotten!!
Is the car modded at all ?
Although the co is perfect, I would look at CTS try unplugging it and see if any joy.

4.4 Closed, 0.35 wide open on a PF01. They come in red and black, so do PF09s.

If you have a hugely high idle when it's warm, it could be a knackered TPS telling the ECU to dump fuel in, or a split gasket or hose on the inlet after the throttle body. My inlet manifold gasket split and had an idle that crept up as it warmed up - right up to 2500.
