Is it surging?
Context: 2013 LT 100% stock.
I recently had all 6 injectors replaced and an intake manifold gasket replaced as it was leaking. The car felt fine after it came back, no raw gas smell, no stalling when coming to a stop but I did notice a little bounce in my RPMs... it was more obvious for the first drives but now its more stable, I would say it never “surged” more than +100rpms but I could definitely see it bouncing up, never dropped below 550rpms at warm idle. Am I going crazy? Does it look normal to you? The video below was recorded at a stop after a 15 min drive, normal city drive pace. I’ve used the AC on a hot day and RPMs look nice and stable. https://youtu.be/KuOP3-eX4Ok Thank you! |

A little bounce is perfectly normal.

Oil pressure gauge seems bouncy too. Again, is this normal? By the time I recorded this I had driven her for about just 3 miles for the 1st time today on a 80F weather.
First Camaro owner here and had barely driven her for about 4 months https://youtu.be/hyzH6BxjP9k |

Completely normal, the ecu has a set point for the idle speed (say 550 +/-) at the same time it tries it best to keep it at 550 but you'll always find 30 rpms fluctuation if not more.

Can you tell me what the intake manifold gasket was leaking? I thought I read that after you had the injectors replaced it ran good then you smelled gas again. |

Ok that makes sense.
But I thought u smelled fuel again? I’m obviously wrong Hopefully they didn’t charge you again for that issue |
