Can I idle with AC on?
Can I idle with AC on?
It’s not a great practice. But setting my environmental preferences aside, you can let any car idle with the AC on for a long time without doing any harm. As long as the cooling system is working properly, you should be able to sit in any modern car you buy and let it idle indefinitely.

Why does idle speed go down when AC is on?
The ISC is what the ECU uses to maintain the idle speed when the AC kicks in or the power steering pump drag the idle speed down. You also need the IPS inside the 2G TPS to be correctly set so that the ECU knows that it’s idling.
When does the idle air control valve change?
When the engine is running but the vehicle is not moving, this means the engine is idling. During this time, the number of revolutions per minute (RPM) inside the engine will change. The idle air control valve is responsible for managing the engine idle speed.
How to reset the idle on a Ford F-150?

What causes idle raises and lowers after warming up?
Idle raises and lowers, after warming up. Engine stalls when you come to a stop, after the engine warms up. Checked for injector operation. Replaced fuel filter. Checked fuel pressure. Replaced cap, rotor, plugs, and wires. Tried blocking the EGR. Checked for vacuum leaks. Checked throttle body mounting bolts.
Is the temperature gauge on my F150 bad?
The truck starts right back up every time. Once you get past the little hesitation she is smooth as silk. The TPS is new, the IAC valve is new and the MAF sensor is new. The temperature gauge doesn’t work the switch might be bad but I think the truck would run like crap all the time if that were the case…
