Re: High idle on each start

It does look like everything is working together better.
Cold startup idle speed is more like normal and drops down sooner. Restarts after warmup are at normal idle speeds. Idling in gear with AC on is smoother. I still may tweak the idle speed screw just a hair more and call it good.
I too am disappointed the aldl cable won't allow true idle speed data but it is what it is and that is more than I could see before purchasing it.
I intend to try to find a Stant thermostat and may even consider an electric fan to help engine warm up time and get it into closed loop sooner and stay there.
I love this truck and it is more pleasurable to drive again.
Thank you CT for all your help.
