There were no burned pins on any of them but on of the harnesses had the clip broken off, not something i did, im assuming that means the gasket has been replaced once before. i cleaned them all up a bit and plugged them all back in, hopefully(probably being too optimistic) they'll settle down. Any other ideas? how likely is this IDM? it's been doing this a couple months but the trucks doesn't run too awful much. it's very sporatic when and if it occurs.

Did you do the test in the link I gave? if not you need to. That will show problems inside the valve cover

i tried to let it idle a lot today. I probably put 2 hours on it tonight with ample idle time. No occurance. It did do it once earlier today before I tore everything apart.
