Running rough

Drove home from work no problem, went inside, 30 min came out started truck and it ran rough, drove it still rough. No smoke, no funny exaust smell. Stumped. Only thought FICM might be bad could this cause rough missing feeling???

It's pretty easy to test your FICM just to rule it out. Check the Tech Folder at the top of the forum list. FICM test procedure is at the top. You'll just need a volt meter and someone to turn the ley for you while you probe the test point.

Do you have any other gauges besides stock in the truck?
