Yesterday went out with a few friends to the harvester, weather as everyone knows got real bad last night, started up the car and the idle was bouncing between 500 - 1000 rpm then found idle and stayed there, it's been there since seen no further issues. Does anyone have any thoughts what could of caused this? Last thing i need is it to hit 0k rpm.
