Ok, mine it around 1200 rpms but some times it goes under 1000rpm and I have to do the throttle a little or it will die and then it is hard to start back up. I'm not looking forward to digging into this sled to turn it up :banghead: But, when we get snow I'll try to get it back to the dealer and let them turn it up and bill Cat for it.

mine does the same thing the idle floats from 900 To 1400 rpm. But if it stays at 900 for more than a minute then the check engine light comes on for one flash then the idle goes up and starts floating again.Had it at the cat dealer and the mechanic said he knew nothing about the jag or its sensors.He said he would try to get some information for me that was in october.He did notice that there was 3 hours of idle time on it and pretty much said it was overheating and I was seeing the temp light and not the check engine light.The engine never come close to overheating as soon as the exchangers get a little warm I shut it down.They still have not manufactured the mirrors that I ordered with it so much for spring order.

Mine does the same thing idels around 1000 to 1300 rpm. As far as it dieing and hard to start up again, possible some moiture in the tank or fuel line.

Thanks guys, I'll add some gas line stuff. Glad to hear they are all doing the same thing, and yes my light also came on.

No problems at all with mine. It fires up at about 1500 RPMs, then kicks itself down to 1200 when it's warmed-up.
