Hello,

I will help you get the truck fixed, np but I need to ask, when the engine starts, do you have a check engine light on? If so we need to run the codes to see which ones are stored. Please what this video.

Next, it sounds like you have a vacuum leak or the throttle body need to be serviced. Please go over this guide as well and report back with you findings.
