EBPV always closes when engine cold.

Like the title says my EBPV always closes on start up in the morning or afternoon if the truck has been sitting. Even if its 80 out my EBPV will close until my EOT is around 100 then it opens back up. Is this normal?

Nope it is not normal. It should never do that at that temp.

In a stock tune it should only close the EBPV at 20* c which is 68* f at idle for 90 seconds without your foot on the break.

Not 100% sure...

At first thought, there could be a computer issue or sensor issue as its a "timer of sorts based on temps" to make the EBPV open and close.

When you are just idling does it do this in any tune when its 80* temp outside?

I leave it in the stock setting 90% of the time. I've actually never tried it on the other settings when cold. But yes if its 80 out in the afternoon and its been sitting since morning the valve will close until the EOT is at least 100.

Started it tonight in the 65 DD setting. Temp 70 and the EBPV closed until the EOT hit 90.
