I recently replaced the valve cover gasket on my 97 4.0L and now have several problems with engine.
First off, upon a cold start, the engine idles high-above 1k and eventually idles down to 750 within 30 secs or so.
Secondly, when the engine is ideling switching from let's say heat through floor-vents to mid-vents happens almost instantly, but when driving, if my foot is on the accelerator, the heat won't switch until after I take foot off of the accelerator.
Could this be a CCV problem? I do have some oil leaking from the rear valve grommet, going to replace this soon as I get the parts in-heard it was a B!t$h.
A frind of mine said that this ultimately sounded like a vacuum line problem and everywhere over the net ppl have same diagnosis for similar symptoms, however, I have no idea where to start. I have bought a Chiltons and am ready to solve the problem I just need a little direction. Thanks in advance for your
time everyone!
