I've tried searching, but didn't come across anything relevant yet
91 XLT OHV with ~60K on a rebuilt longblock. Lately when first starting it up from cold, the RPM's shoot way up around 2000 or more for approximately one full second, then drastically plummet to the regular idle of ~850. When starting, I've always waited the two or so seconds for the fuel pump to prime, then turned it over - It's never done this in the past 10+ years....should I be concerned? Could it be vacuum-related?
If anyone can offer me some places to start troubleshooting, it would be much appreciated!
Thanks In Advance,
