madog7200 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 At what rpm does y'alls trucks idle... I've got this new motor in and now it is idling at about 1500 which I know is too high and I can't figure out why.. We started by fixing the exhaust leak caused by the new manifold being bent and not sitting flush with the block, and I've replaced all of the vacuum lines thinking it was getting too much air... Now I'm at a stand still It's a 91 4.0 4wd Thanks in advance guys Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBpunk Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Auto or Manual? Autos tend to idle a bit higher if I remember correctly. I'm at about 750rpm. Check your sensors, vacuum, clean your throttle body etc. I got a water bottle and sprayed water around the vacuum spots until I found leaks. The one going to the MAP sensor on the back of the motor (flat gray piece) has a small tube that likes to break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I replaced the vacuum line going from the map to the intake manifold Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 700 to 750 is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madog7200 Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 700 to 750 is correct.That's what I thought, I'm beginning to wonder if the fact that I used bigger diameter hose as vacuum line is the problem?

Ωhm Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 OD doesn't matter, larger ID technically could slow down response time, but at a steady state (ex:idle) will have no bearing at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
