I am taking off out of drive way and engine goes to REDLINE on tach had to turn engine off before engine blew up!!!!


WON'T IDLE ( UNLESS IDLE IS REDLINE 5600 RPM)

PLEASE READ THE WHOLE THREAD both pages THOUGHT IT WAS FIXED....BUT IT CAME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

unhook your battery, leave it off for 10 minutes or so, hook it back up and try it again. I have heard of this before, your computer had a seizure.

 

Thanks for the quick reply I will try now....cross your fingers I have a Christma parade for the Jeep Club Tomorrow ...don't need to be in shop all weekend....

 

Yea!!! I had a 69 Barracuda Convertible with a 360 and auto trans that the accelarator cable broke and that was a hand full to stop even with power disc brakes ( almost 380 horses ) ...

But I checked the cable first and there isn't one...Thanks Sonic

I tried to search for this problem but brought up nothing!!

 

Yep!! Thanks !!!! Ya'll are great ....That fixed it!!!!

Now I gotta call Chrysler Roadside Assistance to cancel the wrecker!!!!

 

take not of the date and time that it happened. maybe next time you are in the shop, they can look at it and see if the ecm can tell them what happened.

 

Thanks Bill.....I will do that ...and thanks again for the heads up!!!

 

anytime !

 

O K !!! I have put 2 and 2 together and now it equals 10 !!

This all started when I plugged my daughters I-POD into my 6-disc CD changer and I only realized it when I plugged it in again!! And it left me on the side of the road to undo the battery to reset it again!!!

So my new question is what ta hell does this have in common????? Why does the I-POD fry the factory computer and make it think it needs to idle at 5600 RPM???????

 

Sorry to bump... I have got to know...what does plugging in the I-POD to the factory 6-disc changer auxillary jack have to do with freaking out the computer and it idleing at 5600 RPM !!????????
