NOTE:
•
If ambient temperatures are low and the coolant
temperature is below 200°F (93°C), the engine idle
speed will slowly increase to 1000 RPM after 2 minutes
of idle, if the following conditions are met:
•
foot is off brake pedal and throttle pedal
•
automatic transmission is in Park (P)
•
vehicle speed is zero
•
Applying the throttle will cancel fast idle
•
If the engine is equipped with an aftermarket exhaust
brake (manual transmissions only), operating the ex-
haust brake at idle will greatly improve warm up rate
and will help keep the engine close to operating
temperature during extended idle.
Stopping The Engine
Idle the engine a few minutes before routine shutdown.
After full load operation, idle the engine 3 to 5 minutes
before shutting it down. This idle period will allow the
lubricating oil and coolant to carry excess heat away from
the combustion chamber, bearings, internal components,
and turbocharger. This is especially important for turbo-
charged, charge air cooled engines, like your Turbo Ram.
