hey guys whats a normal idle for a manual 5.0? becasue mine sits at about 600 rpm at idle. and my volt meter jump back and forth till i start driving it. any input would be great and much appreciated! thanks guys

 

mine is around 1100, my dads 70 is around 1250 or so

 

urs sounds high. isnt normal like 750-800?

 

are you having a problem???

 

um kinda. every time i re-time it i pull that plug ur supposed to to time it(forgot the name of that censor) and every time i plug it back in it goes back down to 600. i cant figure out why

 

it's the spout connector.......set timing with spout out......then perform a base idle reset

 

yea thats what i did. ill disconnect it and time it and every time i plug it back in the computer resets it to 600 rpm. it was never that low till about a month ago. it always sat around 750-800 rpms

 

run a koer and make sure that no IAC codes are presesnt

 

The U/D pulleys you have might be part of the problem. Either swap out the alt or put the stock pulley back on.

 

umm ha im not quite sure how to run that test lol

and Boss Hotrod it never did this before and ive had the pulleys on for over a year now
