I have a 2003 Dodge Ram. After my truck sits for awhile, like overnight or all day at work, and then is started and runs just a few seconds, It will idle really low and sputter almost to the point of dying and then will surge hard as though somebody just stepped on the gas, but I am actually holding the brake. I have changed plugs but didnt help. I used fuel injector cleaner but didnt help. Any ideas?

Test the idle air control motor and the TPS/IAT/MAP sensors
