I see you have a new cam. Have you had your truck tuned after those mods? That may be your problem.

yeah but were having idle problems cuz of my modded throttle body (shaners) were figuring all that out right now. going for more tuning next week. hopefully that will fix it then.

if you are tuning with any type of software, there are tables where you can adjust idle rpm and other things when the ac is on
