[QUOTE="me2, post: 1444224, member: 3825"] It turns out it was the charging circuit. A few weeks ago my alternator light came on. Long story short, I replaced the alternator and the truck no longer high idles. It starts way better too. It is quite a job to replace the alternator. Don't do it from the top. Pull the passenger wheel and the wheel well. Then it is fairly straight forward. BTW, there were no other signs that the alternator was going except a low battery and a longer start. The truck totally died about 5 minutes after the alternator light came on. It would have been nice if the CEL came on to flag that it was having charging issues. Luckily I wasn't caught out on the road. [/QUOTE]
