I've had my 7060 for about 3 weeks now - just over 30 hours on it. I noticed that when I first start the machine, it tends to idle just fine. However, after I've had it running for a while, under load, it does NOT like to idle any lower than 1700 - 2000 RPMs. Never had this problem before on any of our older Internationals. Does this have something to do with the new Tier IV engines?

Also, this unit has a warning light on the dash for an emission sensor. This sensor has been blinking almost constantly since I first got the machine. How concerned should I be?

Overall, I've been very happy with the machine and haven't had any problems. However, for the amount of money I've got invested in this machine, I want to make sure that there isn't a more significant problem.

Appreciate any/all advice.

The light flashing and not idling may be connected, better get it checked out.
