I guess I get to jump in on the rough idle bandwagon. I had a rough idle when the truck was warm only & as soon as any RPM was increased, it ran smooth. Now, magically the rough idle is gone, but the truck idles @ 50-75 RPM higher than normal. New FCA, Stanadyne used, good power, no injector...

This is interesting to read... I had the same thing happen on my '03 after installing my Edge J/A box. The lift pump runs much longer as previously stated, but it does eventually shut off if I turn the key on and don't start the truck. I guess since it does eventually turn off if the truck is...

I guess unplugging the boxes would be a good idea. I will have to give that a try when I get a chance. Also, the problem is temperature related, but rather than ambient air such as cold start rough running, it only does this when warmed up. I will keep this thread open as I further research...

Yea, mine will surprise me now and then with a smooth idle and it never does it when cold. I guess this makes 2 of us... lets see if anyone has any suggestions. The truck runs great otherwise, but I hate pulling up to the jobsite, drive thru, stoplight, etc... . it sounds like crap. Thanks...

OK, well I have looked through the archives in this forum and really am stumped with this one. The truck: 2003 SO CTD quad cab SB, 4x4, 48RE, 125000 miles, edge J/A, AFE stage 1 I have a rough idle once the truck is warmed up, but there are NO other symptoms. Good oil samples, new FCA...

Sounds good... I second the guages as it won't be too long and you will have a box, injectors, turbo..... :D Tim

Update OK, so I ended up just replacing the FCA and the truck runs great... good consistent power, no noise etc. I hope you all don't just go replacing this part though, it was a risk and I don't have enough miles to confirm this as the problem. I will post back in a couple of weeks when I get...

Well, the more I do some reading, the more I am realizing just how common this problem is. I don't plan on running ATF as I really can't confirm that it is safe for the fuel system. Based on what I have read so far, my plan is the following, 1. Have a diagnostic done on the truck. . injector...

Great... . exactly the information I was looking for. Thank you and a Merry Christmas to all, Tim

I spent a while looking for this information and could not come up with an answer... Is the AAM 9. 25 & GM 9. 2 the same? How about the AAM 10. 5 and the GM 10. 5? I have the 10. 5 rear in my 03 and was wondering of anyone has used a locker for the GM axle in one of our trucks...

Interesting... I had heard a few rumors about the ATF. I think I will also go ahead and replace the FCA. At $100, it seems worthwhile Thanks, Tim

Thanks for all of the replies... sorry to take so long to get back with everyone. I have not had a reliable internet connection for a while. All good suggesions... I guess from a troubleshooting perspective starting with the basics I will change the fuel filter and run the truck on edge level 0...

OK, Thanks. I kinda thought it may have to do with the ULSD fuel... any other thoughts?

I have a 03 SO with the Edge J/A, AFE and no muffler, 100K. I have an intermittant timing rattle... very loud... usually at part throttle or low load conditions such as highway travel. There is a difference in the rattle between level 5 and 0 on the edge module, however other times there is no...

Hi there, i just thought I would pass along some issues I have been having with my newly acquired flashpaq. I did a fair amount of research both on these boards and talking with friends and finally settled on the flashpaq to be run at their mild towing setting for mileage and a bit more power...
