I have a new 03,6.0, 3000 miles,
??? mine is hunting at idle,650-800 rpm, this doesn't happen all the time.
Sure makes hard to backup and hook a trailer on.
Any input would be great. Is there a TSB out there??

Mine does the same thing. Are talking about for example at a stop light, your foot is on the brake yet it keeps jumping and the RPMs go up and down? Do you have an idea what causes this? Is this normal? |

Kyle, Have a read
6.0 Rolling/Rough Idle (surge/lope) After Hot Restart:
Engineering is investigating a concern of an erratic idle after a hot restart. The condition may clear up on throttle tip-in. Currently there is no fix for this condition. If a truck exhibits these symtoms, unplug the engine oil temp sensor to see if the idle stabilizes. If it does, do not attempt a repair. Disconnecting the EOT sensor eliminates the initial injector actuation of the split shot sequence. Engineering has found that the cause of the rough idle is a problem in the programming for the initial injection.

I am not sure if I understand this correctly, but if I do, it is similar to what I have experienced.
To the best of my knowledge, it always happens after parking the truck for just a few minutes, then getting back inside and starting it. In reverse, the vehicle surges a bit, but I have never thought to actually monitor the RPM. It has done it forward once, but twice in reverse. It almost reminds me of a manual transmission when someone is not very good with the clutch and the vehicle surges.
Maybe I am talking about something completely different.  |
