If fuel economy improves I will be doing the same thing to the wife's car. It too has a HC filter in the air box, and it will be coming out if this works on the truck.
funny how you said it seems to diminish the high idle start. it seemed to me it made my exhaust louder on start up. maybe my imagination though
