Sudden High Surging Idle ?

Joel5.0 · 04-08-2006, 09:38 PM

Suggest to check the system for codes, running a KOEO/KOER self-test. Also check the TPS @op temp, for flat spots/spikes on the output voltage, Ign On, while slowly moving the accelerator blade from closed throttle to WOT, back and forth, this condition could also cause erratic high/low idle problems. The other possibility could be a sticking IAC valve. My 2¢.
