4k gsk questions....

Alright I put the springs in and the truck runs pretty good. Idle was a little high so I know the springs may be on the tight side. Can I do any damage by having them too tight? The truck is harder to start in the mornings and will sometimes drop rpms real low when I put it in gear and the engine is cold. Also the truck is very respsonsive on the lower end, maybe too responsive. Dont want to break anything just yet

Thanks

You just answered your own question. No harm done at all, but too tight and the throttle can be too sensitive for driveability.

Back it off a couple clicks and the idle, hard starting and touchy pedal will go away. Kevin

They say Ideally if you get them back in just the right adjustment your idle will stay the same.Mine did, but i used a marker on the top retainer so i could get a rough measurement with the caliper and then line up the mark so its in the same notch it was to begin with.Mines a little touchy when cold but drive a couple miles and i never notice it
