RPM's
I have an 07 3.7l club cab 6 speed. When i have it in neutral and rev it up ( for some nice sound ) it takes forever and a day for the RPMs to wind back down. is there anything i can do or replace to keep from this happening. Thats probably the only thing i dislike about the truck. Does anyone else have a V6 that does that?

its because you have a clutch fan, remove it and install an efan.

I doubt it's the clutched fan - it would only serve to drag the engine down faster when your foot is off the gas.
My '07 3.7 V6 also takes a long time to rev down, particularly on cold mornings. I've just chalked it up to the electronic throttle mapping. The throttle body is always a beat slower than the gas pedal, both getting on the gas and lifting off. 2007 was the first year for electronic throttle on these trucks. |

To the orginal poster: I think Cramerica is right, look into the electronic throttle stuff. My Dak is an 06', last year of the "real" throttle cables. |
I know alot of guys with manual transmissions had problems with the RPMs hanging between gears when they had the V6 ..... and guess what the dealer said! Normal operation! I don't agree that hanging RPMs are normal though.

No offense, but that does not have much to do with a "hanging" decell of rpm speed. My 3.7L did not do it with the factory clutch fan with 80K on it, before I went to the e-fan.

Well i guess i could unhook the clutch fan to see if thats it. I was looking at the fastman throttle body, would that take care of having the throttle body concern? or do i need to do something else?
