@RonD thanks for the heads up on the CHT. I had some raw wire on wire action above the sender.
I wasn’t able to get the truck started for a drive with the IAC removed as you suggested. Maybe I missed something.
after I patched the wires, I took it for another test drive. I behaved much better. I was able to move through alll the gears like normal, however after sustained rpms above 2500 in fifth I’d I engage the clutch and shift to neutral and the rpms would stay above 2500 for a minute or two before returning to a normal idle. I was able to replicate this once in 2nd gear but no other gear.
could my accelerator or cable be malfunctioning.
also ran an OED with no codes.
