high idle

Long time lurker, first time poster here. I've learned a TON on here and was hoping to get a little help for my specific issue. I've got a 5-speed manual 1998 Ford Ranger 3.0 4x4 that has been giving me fits. It started with an infamous high idle that I couldn't track down. Under load (and even...

Gang, new problem this morning. High idle will not drop to normal after warm. Stays at about 2000 rpm. Pulled codes and got code 32. EGR not responding. Disconnected the IAC valve and had no change. What I did the night before… Looked at the air filter. Sprayed some soapy water on the pass...

I've been having high idle issues for a while now. When the engine is fully warmed it will idle around 1100-1200 RPM. When shifting gears the rpm's don't drop. They only drop (very slowly) after I come to a complete stop. The engine seems to run better with the IAC Valve unplugged, around 750...

So, I have a '94 Ford Ranger 4.0 4×4 Pick-up truck. We keep having to put in new clutches as we do a lot of heavy load hauling and I guess we didn't get a heavy duty enough clutch. However, since our most recent clut h replacement I'd say about 2 days after picking it up its been doingbthis...

When I come to a stop with my truck in neutral or in gear with the clutch in it idles at about 2300rpm for 5-10 seconds then drops down to 1k. Is this normal? If not how to I fix it? 1998 3.0 4x4 5 speed

The truck is a '98 XLT with the 2.5l 4cyl, manual. When driving (hot or cold, highway or in town, 25ft or 200 miles) the engine speed stays high, or goes higher, when depressing the clutch. It will stay there, no matter what, never come down, until the truck comes to a dead stop. I've coasted...

Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read this and showing your interest. I have a 1993 4.0 ranger that has been having some issues with a high idle and recently within the past couple weeks it will stall intermittently. Whenever I first start it, idle runs high around 2k +. After it runs...

Hi everyone! New member, have been stalking the forums for a while now, and I finally got my hands on a ranger. Oldie, but seems in fair shape. Only issue I’ve found so far, code P0174. Pops up fairly often. Not every time but often. Truck doesn’t idle super smoothly, but it isn’t terrible...

First time posting here but I've been reading all the posts on here as well as other sites trying to solve my high idle. I'm running out of posts to read so I figured I'd try posting it and see if anyone has any more tips. It idles at 1200/1300 rpm. Its a 1991 Ranger 4.0 OHV Auto 4x4 STX reg...

I have a 2003 Ranger and recently I have been having problems with high idle. After a few minutes of driving when I push the clutch in it revs up to 3000 RPM or so. it will do it with the air conditioning on and off. Is this normal? I’m not much of a mechanic so I really need some help thank you.

My 1989 Bronco ii 5Speed will jump up to 3000rpm when i shift gears and it will stay that high until you go under 25mph. Then it will return to 1000rpm idle. I have a KOEO code of 41 which is O2 stuck lean. Ive found one vacuum leak were the plenum meets the lower intake. I was able to get the...

I have a 98 ranger, 2wd, v6 3 ltr, Vin -U. I've replaced the thermostat, egr, ecg, 2 o2 censers and some fuses. The only check engine code coming up is P0401. My exhaust does smell rotten but I have several catalytic converters. The code doesn't narrow it down for me. Is there any other, less...

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...

I have a 1991 Ranger 2wd 3.0L manual that has a high idle problem. When you first start it up, it revs high for a minute like it normally would when it's cold and then drops to normal or close to it. When you start driving and push in the clutch to shift, the throttle seems to stick at...

My truck idles around 1,000 RPMs (after warming up) and seems to like to jump up and down. It will jump up to about 1500 RPM for a few seconds and then slowly drop back down to 1,000 RPM. I thought it was my AC causing the idle to increase and decrease so I unplugged it to check and it didn't...

I have a 1996 2.3L. I was originally pulling codes for Insufficent EGR flow as well as Ignition Circuit 1 & 2. After putting in close to $1000 into this truck I am currently pulling P1506 Idle Air Control Overspeed. The truck is no longer pulling the previous codes (EGR & Ignition). The truck...
