So I recently bought a 1987 4x4 hardbody and it has a lot of issues. It runs, and i've put lots of work into it- replaced power steering pump, radiator, water pump, timing chain. However, when you first start the truck, it revs and idles erratically, either holding around 2,300 rpms or reving from 1,100 to 2,300 rpms. After the truck is drive for a few minutes this stops. It usually does this, but not always. Sometimes i'll start it and it will be fine until like one minute later. Any ideas? I've seen posts on the forum about similar problems with 2.4s but not the 3.0. :confused:
