MaroonDuneDoom Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 when i first start my ea82 SPFI, it will idle at 2k. after i tap the gas once, it returns to normal. Sometimes it will return to normal for like 30 sec. then kick back up to 2k. it's not really a problem, but what the hell is causing this? any ideas?

GLCraig Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 The ECU is thinking that the engine is still on the cold side, so it just kicks up the idle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 That would have been my reply as well. You are in Wyoming aren't you? Does it ever warm up after Thanksgiving there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaroonDuneDoom Posted December 7, 2003 Author Share Posted December 7, 2003 it doesn't warm up here until about mid-march or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushbasher Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 my car does the same thing, and so does my dad's honda, I would say nothing to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartless Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 Mine does this as well...I considerit to be normal since it kicks itself down after reaching operating temp...warm weather here is from mid April to about mid Sept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
