High Idle
Brand new to the board, 1st time post. My truck idles around 800rpm in Park and around 600 in gear when first started. However, after I have driven at highway speeds for 30 mins or so, when I come to a stop it is idiling around 1000 in gear and around 11-1200 in N or park. I let the brakes go and it takes off like a rocket. This has happened whith the past 3 tanks of fuel and I usally use injector cleaner but I skipped it this last tank. I hesitate to mess with the idle since it seems fine at first and has just started doing this after running it at highway speeds. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks,
