4.3 Rev's high when started
When I start my 89 PU with the 4.3L it instantly revs up reall really high for about 10 seconds, then goes to a normal idle. Anyone had this? Know what it could be caused by? We believe its in the fuel injection (TBI) probably.

Re: 4.3 Rev's high when started
high cold start idle is normal. if it stays there then you have something to worry about. my truck with a cold start will idle at 1500 rpm and slowly lower to 900 rpm within that 10 second range. check all your vacuum and fuel lines. make sure your fuel pressure regulator is working.

Re: 4.3 Rev's high when started
Understand that, but it does it everytime it is started, even when hot. That's what is kinda confusing.

Remove and clean out the Idle Air Control valve on the throttle body. Also spray cleaner into the IAC opening on the tbi and clean it out real good.
Restart and put in drive so the Ecm can do a relearn on the IAC. Post here if it helps or not Fireplug |

Re: 4.3 Rev's high when started
Then you have a poor way of saying things m8.
Excellent advice. I didn't know the 89 had one.] Sounds to me like a smart remark like yo dude they did not have a 4.3 in 89. Its all in how some words things . I cant tell by reading a computer screen how that was meant to be taken. I took it the wrong way Sorry Fireplug |

Re: 4.3 Rev's high when started
Yea,
I honestly didn't know they had one. When I say "Excellent Advice" I mean it. I still don't know what I said that could be taken as rude in any context. I even had six friend of mine check out the thread and they are confused as to how you derived attitude from it also. All is good and swell in chevy land.......

Re: 4.3 Rev's high when started
Thanks for the input. If you want to know, it revs high enough to spin the tires in gravel if it is put into gear while revving high. Any kind of time estimate on the IAC or difficulty...I'm pretty strained for time right now.

Re: 4.3 Rev's high when started
Find it, remove it, clean it install it.
Very easy and should take no more than 10 minutes max. Use throttle body cleaner and a old toothbrush to get rid of all the carbon. |
