High idle, and 3cyl high idle
Does anyone know if the 02 with manual tranny has this option? I've had a couple dealers tell me they dot have that option but I've seen several people on here with the same truck and they have high and 3cyl idle. I need any and all info on this if you guys can help me. It's rapidly getting colder here And my truck has to sit out and I'd really like to have this option. Thanks all.

Nonsense - Most dealers couldnt buy a clue, which is a shame.
Yes, it will work on your truck. Works on my 01 6 speed anyway. There are numerous conditions that must be met to get it to actuate.
Where are you? The easiest thing to do is to buy a Smarty or find someone that will let you try theirs. When they take it off, the high idle and 3 cylinder idle will remain enabled. Check out your local DTR Chapters - I guarantee there is some good guys there that would be more than happy to help you out:

Mine works to my high idle kicks in when the out side temp is in the 20s and the 3cyl kicks in when its in the teens and lower. Man its sure handy when its cold specially if I kick in the exhaust brake
