heres what happen i was at drivethrough
and all sudden i felt the car surge and i saw the voltmeter move a lil bit... i then started to hear a hissing frfom the engine i pulled over and opened the hood and it was evident it was hissing i tried to look for any plugs that got loose and i didnt find any
it seems like the hiss is coming from the driver side
and when im driving the truck is whistling and when ur about to stop at a stop light the truck would surge..

also when turning the truck off it seems like theres a 1-2 seconds lag for the engine to turn off
anyone help please
sorry about the long post
btw no check engine light goes on

Could be your idle IAC vavle
 






iac valve is right by the airfilter.. the noise seems to b coming from the driver side it whistles when u give it gas
and when u are at parked and open the hood it sounds like theres a leak
 






ok stupid question time
on the vaccum tree
i made sure all of them are tight
where do the other ends of the vaccum goes?
 






i figured out what it was i think
i notice one plug missing on the vaccum tree
i didnt notice and loose hose hanging
so i just plugged it..
its the first one on passenger side facing the driver
infront of it was capped already
so i just figured to cap it.. anyone confirm this?
