problems with idle

[wwwz71]

i have diablo predator u 7137. on a 2005 dodge ram 1500 4x4. with 4.7 gas engine. i installed the 87 performance tune and my rpm is very low and sometimes boggs dowm and dies when turning. i attempted to reinstall original back up but same problem

If its the same with or without the tune, its gotta be the throttle body. Its going bad and needs to be replaced. You might be able to buy time by increasing the idle in the tune.

ok thanks for the info

you might try just cleaning the throttle body. 4.7 isnt drive by wire in 05 so i dont think you can asdjust your idle. i had a gmc in the shop a few weeks back and he had the same problem. i cleaned his throttle body and his idle came up and no more dying.

Its not drive by wire? Then it could just be the IAC sensor or motor.

My son has an 05 neon that had the same problem. I did the relearn thing like I have done with the wifes 06 300c. Turn the key off, disconnec the wire to the IAC on the neon not the 300 it dont have one and I know that . Plug the wire back in . get in the car turn the key on and slowly push the accelerator all the way to the floor. Release the accelerator slowly until its all the way to the top. Turn the key off. Turn the key back on and start the car. This reset my idle and the car runs smooth as silk.
