The pattern is that the engine will go to a high idle when warm, 3200, and then will, after several seconds or so slow to about 1200, but never return to 800 or 900 as it is supposed. If this was an older Ford I would say that the "dashpot" needs to be replaced, but I don't know how the idle control is handled with this motor. Is it a vacuum leak? I replaced the auto hubs with manual because the originals were not working. Is there a possibility a vacuum leak there? Otherwise where might I look to find the culprit? The engine has only 115 thousand on it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, BC
