    Wondering if anyone has some insight on what might be my idle issue? :biggrin_25522:
    The shaking caused by the rough idle might be hard on the kingpins...

    Thanks
    No, not since we re-did it. Just play around with it now and take it to shows.

    What did you "re-do", anything with the engine? Maybe it is out of time?

    Hi Desert Ca

    Sounds like an injecter maybe broke the plunged or possibly a rocker ARM you can use a hand held laser heat gun at the exhaust manifold also could be cam sensor I haven't worked on a cat for a while but I know cummins are bad #### the inj harness wires covering deteriorate and then then rub together they idle real rough with no check engine lite
