Should be fine... in the future if you want to idle it to cool it down or warm it up, just pull your throttle control out a few notches and bring the idle up to around 1000rpm. That will keep combustion temps up and reduce slobbering. My new Dodge Cummins has a feature built into the ECU that if the idle air temp is below a certain point and the truck idles for more than 2 minutes after starting, it will ramp up to 1000rpm automatically. Makes it a lot easier to warm the cab in the mornings. No more stick between the seat and the throttle is needed<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_wink.gif" alt="Wink">
