Hey all, so my SOHC has developed a very serious idle issue... Video here: My truck will normally not hold a steady idle when it's either cold outside, the truck was just started, or after running for more than an hour. The truck will not hold an idle really at all while I'm like sitting at a light or stop sign, or in traffic. It will only hold most of the time if I put the truck in Neutral while I wait. Not sure what can be causing this, I'm starting to believe it could be the IAC valve. I've heard things like the PCV tube toward the front of the engine cracking and breaking causing these symptoms. If anyone could help me, it would be really appreciated. I would love to get my truck running a lot better again so I can safely get to where I am going.
