I have been having issues with my truck not liking to idle correctly after being shut off and restarted within about 15 minutes, It will idle @ about 450-500 rpm. I have set the TPS baseline using the procedure in Snap ON Shopkey and any other time it idles where its supposed to right @ 850 rpm. The truck is an 86 but it has been converted to a 1990 California emissions MAF computer, all of the egr components have been removed. I have no codes KOEO or KOER, the ACT and ECT are both within range, the FPR does not leak and fuel pressure is 33psi @ idle and 40psi KOEO. The IAC does function correctly in the KOER test and an ohm test to it @140 degrees says its fine as well. the underhood temps do get to 140*+ and the upper intake gets toastier than that right after shutoff.
I was wondering if relocating the ACT to the intake tube and capping the hole in the intake would make much of a difference in this behavior as the rubber intake tube is somewhat more isolated from engine heatsoak than the upper intake and it stays roughly 5-10 degrees cooler than the ambient underhood temps while driving.
