Yea, it does the same thing when that little lever is in "R." I took it to the local dealership to see if they could help diagnose my problem and they told me my carb is messed up or something. So I'm switching back to 5w20 as per their advice. Hopefully things will get straightened out.

My 99 does this, too. Until you tap the brakes then it stops "engine braking" and drops about 500 rpms.

My Supercrew will coast forever when I let off , but my Lightning slows down rapidly.
