Re: MH Triton Idling Issues

i really don't think the ecu sensor is buggered as i get the fast cold idle (1500rpm+) when its cold and when its warm, it sits around 800 with a miss and then it drops to around 450-500 with a distinct miss with the a/c on.
unless there's another sensor?

Re: MH Triton Idling Issues

i would have thought that, but it does it when it's cold and warm.

with regard to ecu codes, would it be too old to read codes from (1990 model)?

MH Triton Idling Issues

I have an MH Triton 3.0L V6 and everytime i drive it, at low rpm (under 1600rpm) it has a distinct miss. It appears to go away when it's revved. You can smell fuel when it's idling at the traffic lights too. The idle is made worse when the a/c is turned on, as it drops and almost stalls. I have done ...
