Subject: Truck does not idol
IP: Logged

Message:
Every now and again my truck will not return to an idol, when it is
in gear it will hold about a 1000 rpm and if i put it in N i will rev up
to about 1500. until i touch the trottle than it returns to normal.
what could be causing this i am stumped and have been trying to
diagnose this problem for some time now. i have replaced the idol
motor and checked the throttle position sensor thanks for all your
help

idol = object of worship.

idle = what your engine should do when you take your foot off the gas pedal (not petal; not peddle).

Have a nice day.

try checking your throttle cable to see if it has and broken strands that could be getting hung up and holding the throttle open, it may be a long shot, but I have seen it happen before.
Good Luck
