    To anyone saying 2,000 is normal. You have an issue. Programming is not 2,000 rpm at startup.

    If you'd like to see the table, I'll post them up if you say what year/model you have.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Even in the dead of winter the blue car wouldn't idle any higher than 1200-1400 TOPS...and once it gets into closed loop...up to temp or not...625-685.

    Sure you ain't got a vac leak?

    Or maybe YOUR IAC/TPS' are dirty and need cleaning.

    everythings clean, it probably has a leak since its a 3100 and they leak to run right
    but for almost 5 years its done the same thing everything time, i would think that if something was wrong then it would get worse over time

    When I started mine yesterday it didn't do it, it went straight to 1200 and gave me no issues. Same when I started it when I was leaving where I was at. I'm still going to clean all my sensors and the throttle body, I'm just confused why it would do it a few times and then not do it.

    ((Mine is a 3.8, though I doubt that makes a difference))

    That definately makes a difference. We'll try to help out instead of blaming it on "inferior motor" lol
