i am having the problem when i turn over the truck it immediately wants to stall out like it isn't gettnig enough gas or something. if i push on the accelerator and rev the engine, then let it come back down to 700rmp, it idles fine and doesn't seem like it wants to shut off. mine almost sounds like a fuel pump problem.
your problem sounds a little different than mine. sounds like yours is having a hard time turning over, while mine has a hard time staying started.
how many miles do you have?
