rough idle at startup
Hey all,
The last few days when I turn on my truck I get a pretty rough idle. It doesn't come close to shutting off or anything it just will shake around for a bit. If I let her warm up for a little while (say a minute or so) she will go back to normal, and then everything is okay after that. I am not getting any codes so I don't really have anything to go off of. One thing is is that I have a coolant leak somewhere but it is not going into the oil. Its leaking out of the front of the engine somewhere (water pump perhaps). Anyway, any ideas on the idle situation. Thanks

Well that narrows it down
I will give a few things a try and let you know what I find. Could magnecor 8mm and bosch fusion plugs have a life expectancy of only 30,000 (thats how long ive had mine in). I know that anything is possible, but I just wanted to try and find out a good starting point and Im hoping that these wouldnt have gone bad that quickly ...... it was a pain replacing those wires so Id rather not do it again.
Thanks a lot
