Greetings, I have a problem with my truck. In low function, with its correct rpm, when running, the rpm drops as if it were going to turn off, I have to accelerate it hard (over 6,000 rpm) and in turn creates an explosion counter, and stabilizes.

I changed:

Idle control valve
Knock sensor
EGR valve
Electronic Spark Control

I checked the vacuum lines and found none broken.
The timing is correct.

And I continue with the problem.
Someone could know what the problem would be.

Hello,

Is your Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or "check engine" lamp illuminated. If so could you pull the code(s) for us. In the diagrams down below I have included instructions on how to do this if you are unfamiliar with how to do this. Please go through this guide, if necessary, and get back back to us with what you find out.

Thanks,
Alex
