Idle surge possibilities
I'm a 3rd owner to a 1999 Ford F250 XLT SD and i've posted on here a few times now with no response.
The 2nd owner i bought this from removed the auto locking hubs "Because they were junk" so he says, i never thought to check how this was done or if it was done correctly.
The truck right now, will surge from 600-100 rpms while idling UNTIL warm, and then calm down to 600-800 but still surging, and it will also do this when driving in 2nd gear, but higher gears are alright.
I was wondering if not properly removing auto locking hubs could cause this kind of issue? and if so, how do i do this correctly? Much help appreciated!

I would clean your MAF and IAC and see if that helps the idle.

He put in regular warn locking hubs, and unplugged the auto locking hubs from what i see, and that's all ive noticed. I have before this, cleaned the MAF, throttle body, new throttle body gasket, and IAC and nothing has seemed to make it even a bit better

Should i say that, are you sure the auto hubs vacuum doesnt have to be sealed correctly or anything? i've never heard this problem before, and i could take a video to show anyone who has an interest in helping

Here's the video of how the Exhaust sounds, the motor, and revving:

I cant play the video, but what youre describing sounds like IAC, mine was doing same thing even after a couple attempts at cleaning it, finaly I just replaced it and problem solved

I have a V10 in a Motorhome that had the same symptoms.I tried the IAC and MAF sensor.Turned out to be the egr valve. I hooked a vacumn pump to the vacumn hose on the egr valve and it wouldn.t hold vacumn. The diafram was ruptured.
