Idle control kit ?
I'm pricing out a F250 w/6.0 PSD on KBB site.
I see an option for an 'Idle Control Kit'. Can you tell me what this is? I didn't see it listed on the Ford site when I built the truck there.
This is how it's listed on KBB:
96P
Idle Control Kit, Auxiliary (LPO)
(Req's 99P 6.0L Diesel Engine) (Shipped Loose) Includes
Auxiliary Idle Control Module, Mounting Bracket & Wiring
Thanks,
Sid

It's a device that automatically kicks up the engine speed when idling for long periods of time. Diesels shouldn't idle for very long at the standard idle speed, so this takes care of that. It's used for trucks that have refrigeration units, campers, etc...
