Thanks Ed I'll give it a try. In your experience does this somehow... kill the problem I was talking about?

In my experience it idles fine when its cold. Again I'm in TX, and we don't really have cold winters. When it doesn't go into high idle mode on a cold day, it still idles fine. Maybe a bit lower than normal, but its a fuel injected truck and I usually just drive off anyway and its well on its way to warming up.
