    or you could check your IAC and see if its all carbon'd up. if it is your idle will be effected. simply way to fix this is remove it and see if it and the tb are carbond up. if so you can get some self cleaning oven cleaner and sparingly use it. ive done this many times with great success, just dont over do it and make sure you rise it with in a few minutes.
    It had been getting cooler here so your prolly right on that. Theirs no carbon build up anywhere in the TB. that thing is spotless. guess ill be getting a tune to fix all this. Thanks quik!!

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    Alright. See my truck has been dying on me alot here lately and it threw soome missfire codes the other day. It has a tune on it, use to be a little rich all the time. Put a CAI on it and it seemed to lean it out somewhat.

    I mean it'll just slap out die on you when you come to stop. It idles at 430 anyways so it don't take much.
