Idle Problems
CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH A 1998 RANGER XLT 3.0 PROBLEM?
EVERY COUPLE WEEKS ,USUALLY FOR A FEW DAYS, MY IDLE STAYS
REAL HIGH(ANYWHERE FROM 3000 TO 4500 RPM. THE ONLY WAY
TO GET IT DOWN IS TO ALMOST LET IT STALL WHILE STOPPING
WITH IT IN GEAR. IT DOES THIS AT START UP, WHILE DRIVING,
AND SITTING AT LIGHTS. IT LAST FOR A FEW DAYS THEN IT GOES
AWAY FOR A SHORT TIME. WHEN IT IS NOT HAVING THIS PROBLEM
WITH A HIGH IDLE, IT HAS AN ULTRA LOW IDLE OF ABOUT 500 RPM
OR LOWER. THIS USUALLY LASTS ONLY A FEW MINUTES AND IT
SEEMS ONLY TO HAPPEN AFTER RESTARTING AN ALREADY WARM ENGINE.
