High idle and surging was a symptom of my clogged fuel filter I just replaced.

High idle wont engage unless IAT is 0 or below, and WT is 60 or below. If you drove for an hour, then let it run (or do you mean shut off??) for an hour, the temps would not have lowered enough to turn high idle back on.

When I had my 2000, I made my own manual high idle from a a/c solenoid. You can PM me if you want the instructions. Works great in the summer to help the a/c too. Keeps the oil pressure up as well.

3 cyl high idle is on the REVO program of the smarty & when it reflashes your computer it automatically updates it to the revo program which has the 3cyl high idle. Once its installed the Smarty cant un-install it the dealer has to, as I found out the hard way.

Well, weather they are related or not, I dont think they are, But wish I wouldve known or got some feed back before last night hit, and my CEL came on with the code 0122 again and my truck started runnin all Sh***.
Now its the weekend and every where is closed that I could take it for new TPS.
