thanks, will do 1 through 5 and check out the TPS. appreciate your help

Hi I have a 1988 w/ stick, 4L 6cyl that always starts fine when cold. However, when the engine is warm and i start it the engine will sometimes rev to around 3K rpm and stay there...i shut it off and try again. Sometimes once - sometimes 3 or 4 times. It doesn't happen every time i start it warm, it will go months w/o the problem and then it returns. I have tried sealing all the vacuum tubes and air intake around the air filter. Any ideas? thanks!

Thanks!

Hello everyone, new to the site but love it. I was following a recent thread about serpentine belt noise and it raised a question as i have the same issue with belt noise as the earlier post. I have an 1988 Comanche with the 4.0L 6-cyl and was trying to figure out where the constant noise from the sepentine belt was coming from - trying to figure out if it was the belt or one of the pulleys. (belt i new but i don't know brand). While doing that i noticed that the harmonic balancer has a piece of rubber sticking out from the front - in the previous thread a poster had stated that if the vulcanized rubber is not flush that could be a problem. How do i tell if i have a problem with the HM?
