dakotaguy1	What would cause my 2007 4.7 Dodge Dakota to take a long time to drop from a fast idle to normal idle? I have a 2007 Dakota 4x4 with a 4.7. On a cold start, it takes about 45 seconds to drop from fast idle (1200rpm) to normal idle. After it's warmed up and I restart it, it will idle at about 1100 rpm and very slowly drop to normal. I've put in a new TPS which fixed the surging idle and erratic shifting.
