Re: 2004 duramax rough idle?
If you dont have a scan tool....Have someone check....
1. Fuel Rail Pressure (FRP) sensor & connector. Verify that actual vs desired fuel pressure match in scan data at low speed and under load and high speed. Wiggle the FRP sensor connector while the truck is idling, check for RPM change, Replace the FRP sensor and pigtail connector if RPM change is noted. 2. Graph the input pattern (desired) for the fuel pressure regulator. If the pattern has a saw-tooth appearance, replace the fuel pressure regulator. I replace the FRP sensor, Pigtail connector & Fuel Pressure Regulator. If I find ANY of the above. |

My brother in law's 04 (LLY) does this same thing..... surging at idle. I will pass this info along to him as well.
