03 Yukon 5.3 (l59) low idle


Recommended Posts

Posted

My 5.3 idled between 400-500 rpm before I cleaned TB (thought that might be the issue) and now the engine is consistently idling at 500 now. I cleaned the maf a month ago and it had a fresh air filter. It doesn't run rough and has not thrown any codes. Is the idle still too low? And is there something else that needs to be done after cleaning the TB to get it back to the correct idle speed?

Once my engine has warmed up it has always idled at 500 rpm. So I say your idle is just fine where it is. Now if it drops down below 500 then I would worry.

It does occasionally drop below that and I'll try the battery idea but I don't have a mechanical throttle body. I have the fly by wire throttle body and as far as i'm aware they don't have idle air control valves
