so i have posted on other forums that im working on a truck im considering buying. its my uncles at the moment. its got alot of little problems im sorting through (thats what happens when things sit for 3 years) DETAILS- 1997 dodge 2500 std cab 2wd 5spd. BONE SOCK 166xxx. 215hp motor SYMPTOMS. its been 20-30 oF in eastern pennsylvania lately. ive been tinkering withmy uncles truck fixing it up. i started it the other day after letting the wait to start light die and buzzer go off, i cranked the truck and it took 3 cranks (2.5 more then my 1st gen
) to start, fired and then just sputtered to shut down. tried her again cranked and then same thing, third time it fired idled like crap at around 400rpm and then settled out after 1 or 2 minutes to 500rpm resting place. QUESTION-ive read that the truck i described should idle at 780rpm. so is the low warm idle why it idles bad on cold start up????
