hi again,

So I have everything running now and am running into some odd idle issues. When I start up and warm it up, my idle sits around 1500 and does not move at all. I have set timing and everything else. When I disconnect the wire leading to the idle control Valve and then plug it back in, the idle drops to a 850 level and stays there. I have tried swapping with a known good valve and also swapped a known good idle control module. Does anyone have any thoughts on this one?

Ryan

what year is your van, there's 3 different fuel injection systems depending on the year of the van.
