hesitation/misfiring after first drive everyday
every time i start my truck and drive it for the first 15-30 seconds it hesitates and missfires like the truck isnt getting any fuel or something and once it like clears up its normal. seems to be worse in the warmer weather and only does it sometimes when the truck is already driven. the motor revs normal when i first start it, it is only in gear that it starts to do this. is my fuel pump/ fuel system screwed up or is there a sensor somewhere that is causing this?

in sig, its stock pretty much, been doing this before i got exhaust/intake. i do get a LOT of fuel pump noise after the car has warmed up and more if it sits there running.

you can get them from the dealer, or even autozone might have the felpro gaskets now. 225.00 is what we would charge here.
Start the truck when the engine is stone cold and spray some carb cleaner around the base of the manifold....if the idle changes thats your culprit.
