So i have had this truck 3 or 4 weeks now i notice a slight problem with the idle. It's always smooth
When cold and first start it does not go over 1k rpm (maybe normal i dunno)
Once warm it idles at 550rpm but after running maybe 20 minutes or so the idle is up to 700rpm and it seems to take longer to shift from 1st to 2nd.
I think its temp related causing this?
My Temp gauge never gets to 210 but using Torque Pro it will read 218 is the highest i have seen so i assume the factory gauge is not reading right and the higher idle is a result of temp.
Plan is tomorrow to do a radiator flush and fill a couple times till i get clear water since the PO mixed green and orange antifreeze.
I also notice using Torque Pro that the IAC counts are 0. I don't believe it would idle smooth with a bad IAC valve but ill hook up a proper scanner tomorrow and check.
