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.

Check and make sure that your fuel pressure regulator isn't leaking also...it's located in the center of the driver's side fuel rail. Pull the vacuum hose off of it and make sure it's dry. If there's fuel in that hose, the fp reg is leaking and needs to be replaced. A leaking fp reg will cause the vehicle to run rich and give it a flooding type of condition after it sits and is cranked over.
