Re: 99 4.3 Rough Idle, Low Temp, Bad Gas Mileage

Took the truck to the mechanic yesterday. After an hour of looking they called me and said they still can't figure it out and wanted to know if they could keep looking. I told them they could. How long should I let them go before I give up on them?
One thing they said is that the truck only misses at idle, at 1500 RPM the miss goes away. I agree, the truck seems to run fine on the road, the idle is bad and the gas mileage is low, not to mention it never gets warm. They were wondering about the distributor? Any thoughts?
