Another successful FRPP HotRod Cam install!!!

Do you have any hunting idle with them?
Meaning when in nuetral does your RPM's go up and down any by themselves?
Mine did this bad at first and I had to have the tune changed 3 times before it was gone.
I am getting it again now though after 2 mo.
Installed a new clutch and light weight flywheel and it showed back up.
I don't think it is related to the less weight of the flywheel but could it be?
I know they cause the revs to go faster.
But now it seems to just happen when the engine is cold.
Who knows... maybe my MAF and TB just need to be cleaned now.. I dunno if it is that
or the same issue. Before it was NOT the MAF or TB.
I don't really wanna clean my TB because I am afraid to take that coating off that our TB's have.
And I'm afraid if I don't wipe the TB down after spraying the cleaner... it will get sucked into the engine and hurt it.
I don't want to re tune it because if I do I actually have to drive 3 yrs to the shop.
They tried emailing me tunes before but that did not work. They had to monitor the engine
with a laptop and fix it that way. For some reason their emailed tunes NEVER solved the problem.
Does the hunting idle hurt anything? If not I may just leave it as is since it is only when the engine is
not warmed up now. It only does it for a second and probably a hundred or two RPMs.
