I've read enough about these levers being the source of the cold start misfires that I know it is it. I have the SIB about the levers and the batch of them that were bad. I don't believe mine were assessed properly when the covers were off, but for sure I'll be checking the numbers if it's ever opened up. The drop in idle note and smoothness is it going from open to closed loop on the engine management. The levers are in full swing from start.

This week will be good for testing. The truck sits more than 12h in -5C or lower temps. Even if 0.8mm works, I'll test all the settings.
