How long does a ym240 diesel engine run?

I started my YM240 (24 hp diesel) this spring and it runs absolutely fine for about 1/2 hour – plenty of power under load, no smoke, no blowby, everything seems normal.

What happens when engine idle speed is above programmed range?

When the engine idle speed is either above or below the programmed range, the ECU prompts the ISC to either increase or decrease bypass airflow. Naturally, as the IAC prompts the throttle plate to open, engine speed increases. The IAC features a plunger mechanism that may be stuck/sticking.
