    No APU, are you planning on keeping it long or you trade them?

    This works until you restart the motor. Then its back to 600

    That strange on my fourth cummins and they all stay set till I change it. 2005, 2009, and 2012 ISX's all T800 oh just remember I have PTO on all of them the ECM is programmed for PTO my RPM will got to 1500 and hold it with the cruise on sitting still.

    I just asked Kenworth to set the ECM to 650 RPM for normal operation and the motor runs much smoother.
