Re: 5.3 idle issues

Take a hard look at your intake gaskets. These motors are notorious for the O ring seals not sealing until warm. As long as its not throwing codes it's easy to assume it's just a vacuum leak. You could try spraying carb cleaner at the base of the intake to see if the idle smooths out. If it is the gaskets they are super easy to change out.
