What to do if engine RPM is high on cold start up?

Fast idle on cold start up and takes 5-10 minutes to go back to normal. Outside temps are 100F so engine is not really cold. First clean the IAC stepper motor plunjer and air canal and check again. If still high on idle, then its probably the TPS. KYB Gas-a-Just shocks / Transgo reprogramming shiftkit.

What’s the engine rpm on a 2004 Jeep?

Recently started to have this problem…

7 HO. Fast idle on cold start up and takes 5-10 minutes to go back to normal. Outside temps are 100F so engine is not really cold.

What does erratic idle mean on a jeep?

Erratic idle like you have is the TPS. A faulty IAC would give a constant idle (high or low) and a fault code for the IAC. Erratic is normally the TPS. If you have a scanner which shows live data, you can see the TPS % going up and down a bit. Its normally around 12 % at idle. KYB Gas-a-Just shocks / Transgo reprogramming shiftkit.

What causes high engine rpm when starting a jeep?

A dirty air passage from the IAC can give idle problems. Remove the IAC stepper motor and clean the plunjer and air passage very well. You will have to remove the resonator box for this, because the passage starts at the front of the throttle body.

Why is it when driving the RPM gauge drops or jumps up?

Somewhere the fuel drop then suddenly rpm decrease better check the complete fuel system from tank to injectors also check the rpm sensor . Was this answer helpful? This could possibly be your output speed sensor, related to the transmission.

What should the engine RPM be on startup?

There are indeed several apps available, but ” Torque” is at least a very good one. On startup, the RPM will climb up to 2,000 and then idle back down to around 6oo. It doesn’t matter if the engine is hot or cold. Engine is the 4.7 in a ’99

Why is my car hard to start cold or runs poorly?

Those are your main causes of cold start enrichment failure. I suppose a fuel pump could be weak, and not be able to deliver enough fuel. Or a fuel pressure regulator could be going out. Generally speaking, any other cause of poor running/a hard start cold would also cause problems while the engine was warm.

What causes engine rpm to be high on startup?

Outside temps are 100F so engine is not really cold. First clean the IAC stepper motor plunjer and air canal and check again. If still high on idle, then its probably the TPS. Thanks, I’ve recently changed to a K & N cold air intake so maybe the dust and dirt got into the idle air control.

Can a bad coolant sensor cause a car to not start?

Some cars use the engine coolant temperature sensor to control the electric cooling fans. You have two separate temperature sensors for the fans, dashboard gauge, and engine management in most cars. However, if your car has a single sensor, a bad engine coolant temperature sensor may result in your fans won’t start at all.

Why does my Pontiac Grand Prix not start?

WHEN I TURN THE KEY I CAN HEAR CLICKING SOUNDS, BUT IT WILL NOT START. THE WEATHER DOES NOT PLAY A FACTOR IN THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE GAS IN THE CAR, SO THAT IS NOT THE CAUSE. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT PINPOINT THE PROBLEM. WHEN THE CAR STALLS THERE IS NO WARNING.

When does a truck run rough on a cold start?

It generally happens in the morning or when the truck has sat for a few hours. It starts just fine, but shakes and idles rough untill I press on the accelerator, then seems to run/idle just fine. I have repalceded fuel filter, plugs and cleaned the MAF and IAC at regulare service intervals. One last note, I may be loosing coolant.

What causes a car to start but not keep running?

The engine requires the right amount of air and fuel to mix together for ignition. If there is a fuel leak somewhere, then the correct amount of fuel may not make it to the combustion chamber. This might be enough to allow the engine to start, but not keep running.

Why does my Jeep Wrangler have hard start condition?

I did have an issue once before where I changed the fuel pump assembly and the new gasket that came with it was faulty. However, since then, another new pump and gasket have been in the jeep for 3 months and the hard start condition just appeared. I do not have a CEL on.
