Edge Help! Idle rpm's?
 
okay guys, i may be an idiot for asking but i just got my edge last week. I've been piddling around with a few things. level 3 preset works great but has a really low idle rpm - like 370 or so. even dies out occasionally. i went to custom to change max speed, tire size, etc... but that made the rpm race at 1700 during idle. is this all normal or do i have a big problem? any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can change the idle rpm with the edge unit. It was discussed either in this section or the 2004+ section. It may take a little searching but I know its there somewhere. :thumbsup:

What exactly did you change?

I would be verrrrry careful changing some of the pcm parameters until you understand the interrelationship of the performance options.
I just recieved my edge lat week. I'm running level 1 with axle & tire data modified.

That is all it is for, to set your speedometer and mileage.

idle problem like treekiller!
 
I got mine today.:rocker: I was approaching e on my 87 octane gas, so I decided to play with lvl 1 and 2 on my way to the gas station. My truck worked fine, and I was very impressed with the edge programmer like the rest of you. Since I had to put gas I decided to put 92, that's all Hawaii offer's. It started up w/no problems, and ran great. Drove it around a bit to get rid of the remainding 87 octane, then upped it to Lvl 3, and lvl 3 is for me. But when I got to my stop, I went to reverse into my stall and the truck died out cause rpm's to low 150-300. So I decided to pull forward in to the stall in front of me so I won't hold up traffic. It took me 4 tries to do it, the last try, I had to rev the truck from P to R to N and finally D, and jerk my way forward, (lookin like an A$$:lol: ). So I put the edge back to stock and same thing, it rev's to low, still 150-300 for about 3 sec and dies out. I tried to up my rpm's on the tuner but all lvl's only allow up to 350, and that's not enough. Hopefully someone can :help: us.

Did you ever figure this out? I’m having that exact problem right now it’s making my truck un drivable. It used to happen around twice a day and now it happens every single time I come to a stop. It started happening everytime when I switched it to the other levels to try and fix it. Also when I try to start it back up it cranks but doesn’t start for like 10 seconds or so and then smells like fuel

That member hasn't logged in for almost 8 years, so I doubt you will get a response.
