Fading Idle Problem
I have a 98, 2wd 4 cylinder Ranger. It's running well, but it does this strange thing while idling. Everyone once and a while, the RPM's will start dropping until I hear this click sound from the engine compartment, then it will go immediately back to idling at the normal RPM.
Does anyone know what this is? It doesn't seem to be affecting how my truck drives, but I'd like to fix it if I can.
Thanks.

Welcome to FTE!
When you hear the click sound, could it be the A/C shutting off?
Keep in mind that your A/C runs in every climate control mode except for "floor" and "vent".
Otherwise, I would suspect your Idle Air Control valve (IAC) might sticking.
