O4 Cummins lope at idle
If the cam & crank sensors have not been changed, swap them. They are cheap & they do not last forever. Do not get anything but Cummins parts on these sensors (same sensor, 2 locations). Last time I swapped mine it was an eye opener, my tuning was dialed in for how the motor ran (self tuned) and on the 1st stab of NTK sensors, thru a code right away and the motor did not run 100% like it did with the old sensors. Got Cummins parts and did a comparison of the magnets at the sensor end & the NTKs had a weak magnet compared to the Cummins sensor. Not sure who makes that sensor but back then it was under $30 at the Cummins parts shop.
In the issue I had with the lope...
edit: Found the thread and it is the opposite of yours... was rock solid until the 5 min mark & then had a rough idle. If you want to read it search for "Rough idle after 5 minutes" & steve05ram360 & you should find it, again it was the opposite of your symptoms. Rough idle after 5 minutes.
I'll get them ordered tonight so just 2 of the same sensors?

Hey got busy this weekend so wasn't able to get it on yet from what I've researched it's behind the computer, but something to note today when I cranked the truck I let it idle for about 10 minutes and went and checked the smarty low voltage at lift pump code well I cut the truck off and cleared code and it idled perfectly so what is y'all's opinion on that?
