sroeser01 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 The last few days its been staring just fine but as soon as it turns over and starts the rpms drop real low to around 4 or 5 hundred for the first few seconds almost stalls out then gradually climbs to a proper idle. Curious as to why. No codes or ses. Clean maf and new air filter. Any help would be awesome thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkinpark Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Mine only does that on my remote start when its cold out. Really strange but never been able to figure out why either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Do you have the remote start hooked to the start signal wire for the ECU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkinpark Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Well it has been a long time since I have looked, but I do know that every wire from the ignition switch is hooked up. So no different than turning the key since there is no chip in mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferrariowner123 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Could be the Idle Air Control Valve... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sroeser01 Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 So I went to clean what I thought was the idle air control valve and had to remove part of the intake to get to it. Couldn't remove the idacv and it was getting dark and cold so I starting putting it all back together and now when I start the truck it idles fine but with the clutch all the way in and I shift into gear the rpms jump to 2k...any ideas. I'll work on it this weekend if its not snowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkinpark Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Well I do know that when I am cruzing and coming to a stop if I leave it in gear and just put the clutch in the engine idles higher till I come to a complete stop. Now when I put in the clutch and put it in neutral it goes to normal idle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
