On the back of the TB is your IAC sensor. What year
is this truck? What problems are you having?

95, Idk what i did but it's fine now. It was idling rough and stalling when stopping. Added lots of seafoam and fuel dryer and it persisted. So I unplugged that and plugged it back in(thinking it is what it isn't) and plugged the truck in overnight and this morning it ran fine.

Me again,
Most likely it will happen again. Here is what you
want to do. Head to your favorite or local parts
store. You want a new TB gasket and a can of carb an
choke cleaner. Remove your TB remove the IAC (on the
back) spray it clean careful not to hurt the
plunger. Then your TB spray it clean top an bottom.
Replace IAC and reinstall TB using new gasket.

Tyler I forgot to ask did you check for codes?
No scanner or code reader needed for your truck.

When you say you plugged the truck in overnight, do you mean a trickle charger? Or a block heater?

ok Tyler
Get in the truck, Take a pen and paper with you.
Key in and NOTE when I say key ON
it means all the way forward just short of turning
the motor.
Now go Key On, Key Off, Key On, Key Off, Key On
Watch your check engine light.
It will flash
each flash Represents a number.
Count the flashes right them down as 2 digits
numbers. Example last will be 5 flashes 5 flashes
Code 55 = end of codes.
Post the codes here and I'll help you out....
