Exclamation rough idle 1990 f150

Okay, here's what I got...1990 F150 4.9 i300


problem- when I start the truck it has a rough idle RPM's bog down then jump right back repeatedly. However, when I put my foot on the gas it goes away and smooths out. Let off the gas and it goes right back to what it was doing. Is this a faulty MAP sensor? Computer? Vacuum hose leak? cant figure it out. Please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.

Certainly could be vacuum leaks but you best pull the computer codes to start with.
