i have replaced the tube and the sensor this morning went out to test it out and it still was surging. i thought that replacing them would fix it what else could be the problem

if you mean rpm surge, you may need to check your ICP sensor. that's the first suspect.

I have noticed mine "surging" a little at idle from 700-900. I think I may just be paranoid.

getnbz - I've got the same issue. I really noticed it this morning (my first winter with a 7.3), but from what I've read, its common. Could be misreading here. It has dropped to low 30's to high 20's here over night. I let it warm up for 15 minutes this morning and it didn't seem to help. The valve seemed to cycle on for 3 seconds, then off for 3 repeatedly even while driving. Once I got to the interstate, about 7-10 miles, in quit. So this means if you are having a problem, then I'm in the boat with you.
