Why the idle is over 4000 RPM on 1988 Isuzu truck 2.3L caber?

The idle on a 1988 Isuzu truck 2.3L caber should not be over 4000 RPM. It should be around 800 RPM. If the idle is too high, it could be caused by several factors:

* Vacuum leaks: A vacuum leak can cause the engine to run lean and increase the idle speed. Check the vacuum lines and fittings to make sure there are no leaks.

* Idle air control valve: The idle air control valve (IACV) controls the amount of air that bypasses the throttle body. If the IACV is faulty, it can cause the idle speed to increase.

* Throttle body: The throttle body is responsible for controlling the amount of air that flows into the engine. If the throttle body is dirty or damaged, it can cause the idle speed to increase.

If you are not able to identify the cause of the high idle speed, it is best to take the truck to a qualified mechanic for diagnosis and repair.
