That sounds more like an 02 sensor.. I'd pull the codes on it for sure..... And then see what it says, it could also be an EGR problem.

doesn't sound like th O2 or IAT (don't these only/mostly matter after the truck warms up?). You may want to check the IAC. I have had dirty ones create similar problems, just be careful claening it if they are like most (are they sensitive to movement anyone?)

I just changed the IAT in my '96, 5.8L. The only reason I changed it was because the MIL light was on. I didn' notice any differance in the way it ran. I bought a scanner, and pulled a P0113. Ford calls it an air charge temp sensor. Ford wanted $37. for a new one. Seems like a fair price.
