hi, i'm new on here, and my ranger has been giving me some trouble so i thought id try this. First off its a 99 XLT 5-speed 4x4 3.0L
Whenever i go to start my truck cold it starts at 2,000 rpms, and goes to 1100 quickly, but after it warms up and the engine gets hot it idles at about 900 rpms. If i'm driving it around for a while it and come to a stop and push in the clutch it idles at 1100-1200 rpms for maybe 30 secs. and then settles down to 900.
I'm starting to get very irritated at this because I've replaced the IAC, EGR valve(had a vacuum leak, did a smoke test and that was the only spot), throttle position sensor, cleaned the throttle body. Also I've reset the computer multiple times throughout all this. one last thing is that the curb idle screw is backed out all the way, this was apparently done by the previous owner.
I just don't know what else i should do, any suggestions?
Thank you for any help you can give me.
