Ok i got one for ya guys i herd that when my truck is idleing that the vp shuts off and only uses what fuel the lp pushes. Ok if thats true my truck now idles right inbetween maybe a tad less than 900 and a grand if i was to turn down my raptor 150 would that idle settle down to 900 or a little less

no i dont think that the lp would have enough pres to fire the inj 15psi is def not enough to do so.

It should take 4500psi for the injectors to pop. Im pretty sure that isnt going to happen from a lift pump.

It will cost u some to have the dealer to program it in and the temp will warm up faster because the engine is working harder because only half of the cyls are firing. plus you get the high idle for warm up. around 1200 then when it reaches operating temp it returns to normal. Not sure how much it would cost from the dealer to program it in prob i would say about an hours time so dep on the dealer i would say $75-100 IDK just a guess on that tho.

just find a buddy with a smarty, have him flash a tune on it and take it back to stock, that will give you the updated programming with the high idle at anything under 30 degrees and 3 cylinder idle under 0 degrees.
