98 1500 5.9 V8 won't idle properly when warm
 

Okay so my truck will start perfectly when it's cold but after it's warm it will start up but won't idle it just dies right away it will stay on if I put my foot on the gas and put up the RPMS it stays on if indo that for awhile it will idle fine. The only thing is the idle will just kinda move up and down a lot

Sounds like a dirty iac valve, idle air control and since it only costs the value of a can of carb cleaner I'd start there. I think there's a thread on how to properly do it.


On a side note are you in Albuquerque?

I tried some fuel injector cleaner that didnt seem to help I'll try the carb cleaner and yes I am well Rio now

I'm on the base, I can't remember if it's a dedicated thread or just a single post but it should come up in a search, I remember the just of it and know my way around the throttle body if you want help you could pm me here for a hand

Thanks for your I'll look and if I need some help I'll messagebyou

I had that exct problen happen after my battery died. Put a new battery in and it fixed the problem.

Just saying

Good luck with fix

To get it clean, you need to remove it.
