It use to be something that only happened once in a while, but today it seemed to be occurring more often. At start up the truck sputters, no CEL, give it some gas it eventually clears up. If I go straight from start to dropping it in reverse sometimes it stalls, starts right back up. I have previously replaced my FPR vac hose, checked for leaks. The only modification under the hood is an open element K&N clamped to a maf adapter. Plugs are fairly new, will be changed, but the no CEL is whats bothering me.

Any ideas?

I would do a tune-up then see how it runs.
 












You ever fix it? Mine does the same and it's all stock
 


















Free fixes are the best ones!
 






time out. had a rough idle at start up leaving work on friday. need to change the trans modulator and replace hose to the fpr.. tranny fluid is finding its way back up to the motor.
