Idle hangs after new engine install
Well I just replaced my blown motor with a used but good one from a friend. The swap went smoothly and it fired right up so thanks to you all for your help with that! Now it runs fine and idles great (if a bit high) but the idle hangs up between shifts. It will come down to normal after a few seconds but if I shift a 3000 rpm, the idle will stay at 3000 rpm until I engage the clutch in a different gear or until I wait a few seconds for it to come back down. Other than that everything is great. Any suggestions??
Thanks
Andy

I checkd into that but thats not it. The throttle snaps back nicely but it seems that with the throttle body closed, it still revs high for a few seconds. Any other ideas? Almost sounds like a vacuum leak but why would it stop like that?

Sounds like something altering the fuel mix via computer.

I agree with JEBSR5; sounds like dashpot. You would barely be able to see it in use.
Some ECUs keep the idle up between shifts to minimize jerking during clutch back on; do ours do that?? the new Yota's do...

What does the TPS control actually? I had the truck running while I was jiggling the TPS and the idle was fluctuating. I think the connection was bad but I have yet to drive it. So if the TPS was unhooked, what would happen? I got no CEL, and everything but the hanging idle was fine. Thanks

Sorry, I was jiggling the connection. And I should clarify that when I disconnected the TPS nothing changed as far as I could tell but when I kinda forced the connection, the idle dropped a few hundred rpms.

Last time mine did this and I was sure it was the dashpot, it was a dirty butterfly valve in the throttle body.
A little PB Blaster and a rag and its been fine since.
