Sounds like fuel supply to me. It sounds like it's starving for fuel.
Start docking off all the possibilities
Hole in a fuel line.
Old fuel filter, plugged filter.
Tiered fuel pump,
Very rare.. but your fuel pick up is getting plugged.

Got to be fuel or air. If its not what Glenn mentioned above, then you have an air leak. Worn throttle body gasket, leaking vacuum hose, etc...

Did you ever change out the sensors that Joe mentioned in the other thread?

take your top air box off and look at the injector spray pattern if its TBI witch im sure it is.. have a freind or someone start the truck up and look at the pattern.. if its a nice big cone shaped mist at idle then your good there.. the pattern should look like spraypaint comeing out the can on a none windy day.. if it does then have them rev it up a little and it should become stronger but still keep the same size diameter.. if thats good turn the truck off and see if it starts to drip.. if it does then you have bad injectors and its flooding the motor while it sits overnight or for a period of time.. that would be my guess..
