Got a weird one....
1990 Ramcharger Tbi system.
Truck has a hesitation when you drive it ( normal ) but it does not when you hit the gas hard, or barely push the throttle. The hesitation is unnoticeable when it's fully warmed up.
Truck will start to die, when cold, backing up distance. Both with foot on the brake and not on the brake. When this happens, I'm not giving it any throttle, just in gear. If it doesn't die fully, the RPM is certainly affected by something while rolling.
I can start the truck and let it sit in the driveway for any length of time, and it has a constant RPM tone, no surging, no variance.
I can put the truck in gear and sit still, while warning up, and there's no variance.
Can anyone point me in the proper direction as to what this could be? The map sensor and IAC look to be perfectly aged to say they're from 1990. I have both on order and will keep them regardless since this is my off-road truck now. I'd like a general understanding of what to look for when the sensorS is/are going out. I believe I understand how all of these should act up but being a TBI, I'd like confirmation
