Heat Soak help
can heat soak cause a rough idle. I know I need to wrap my injectors because I have a heat soak issue after driving. But what about the first drive. My jeep seems to idle a little rough. Does heat soak cause low idle while stoped during regular driving? I did clean the the throttle body and changed the plugs. It seems to run a little better but the idle is just a notch below 500 and feels just a little rough. Also, is there something I can get localy to wrap the injectors with. I have seen heat shields for plug wires.

just posted something like this earlier, there is a technical service bulletine on this. Especially on hot restarts. There is a revised design to the Idle air control motor on throttle body. Replace it with battery disconnected, then reconnect and idle in drive for 5 min, shut off and restart, should be fixed

Can anyone tell me where to find this bulletine? I have been googling this for an hour trying to find this updated IAC motor and have no luck.
