Alright, I have a fairly high idle on warm up (1500ish on cold days and 1100ish on warm days) after warm up almost always drops low to about 500 and seems to misfire/bog down and truck seems to lose torque/power. The main issue is the low idle and loss of power after warm up. The truck has a 4.3L TBI V6 (non-vortec), and the 5spd muncie-getrag transmission. Approx 266,xxx on the drivetrain and 45,xxx on motor(fyi motor rebuild was done by an inlaw and not professionally so no telling what was done to it ) I've got a list of things I have already done, bear with me it is kinda lengthy..
New air filter, spark plugs(stock AC Delcos; gapped appropriate), cap/rotor, pickup coil, ignition control module, ignition coil, and plug wires, seals and pressure regulater in TBI, fuel filter, fuel pump, lower intake gasket, coolant temp sensor and pigtail connector for it, deleted the clogged catalytic converter, new O2 sensor. I may have left something out?
Fuel pressure is at 11-12psi best I recall and engine vacuum was ok last I checked. Truck burns little to no oil and no coolant. Oil press is around 60psi cold and 40-45 warm. Motor also has proper spark timing. Injector spray is normal. Fuel economy is great, just got over 20mpg hwy
This truck is OBD 1 and has no trouble codes. Also has a few sensors/solenoids: MAP,TPS, EGR, IAC and AIR injection.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
