Exclamation Cloudy in Paradise

Hi everbody. New guy here. I'm out here looking for info an my slightly ill 5.8 Ltr 96 F-350 4X4. It has a sometimes surging problem at idle and when waiting in trafic. It also started shifting hard while crusing in town. I don't know if these are related problems or not. Can any body out there help me with this?

Welcome to the forum
Have you scanned it for codes?
Most idle problems are from a faulty IAC (Idle Air Control) which should be mounted to the throttlebody.
