more issues.....

so my truck will kinda jerk when i let off the gas at 60mph. i check the transmission fluid and it is fine. nice red/pink color, no foul odors, and at the right level. i just flushed the rear differential fluid last night and all my gears in there looked good and i filled it up with 75w-140 which is what it recommends but it still does it. my drive shaft looked to be ok as well. not sure if it could be a front axle or the awd. im just not sure what it could be. i have other problems too like it will stall out when im tryin to go from park to drive or park to reverse. i cleaned the MAF sensor with the special cleaner. not sure how else to clean the little terminals. not sure what else it could be. it may need a tune up but it still runs and drives good without hesitation to the gas pedal. could it be my alternator? my voltage on my guage shows my battery level a little below halfway and i know on my car it sits at 3/4 on the guage. im jsut running out of ideas to fix it.

Get yourself a Volt-Ohm-Meter at your local WalMart, Radio Shack, Harbor Freight, or local parts house. Your battery voltage should be at least 12 volts with the engine shut off, and 13.6 volts with the engine running. The "jerk" might be the slip joint on the driveshaft, or a bad u-joint, or cv joint. The stalling may be due to the IAC needing cleaning or the TPS faulty. Try these things and see what you have.

I had a similar issue stalling from reverse to drive or park to reverse. It has stopped for now. Not sure what cause it.

As for the jerk, I have a similar issue. I believe it to be the slip yoke in one of the drive shafts. Do you also get a clunk sometimes when you are sitting at a red light and let off the brake before you get to the gas? From what I read the slip yoke can cause that as well. My u joints are tight, so I'm thinking mine is the slip yoke. But i'd check the u joints too.

i cleaned the maf sensor with the special cleaner and my intake doesnt look dirty and my air filter is pretty clean. im thinkin maybe fuel filter??

Well, if it is running good, except the stalling, I highly doubt the fuel filter is at fault. Did you open the throttle butterfly and look inside the throttle body?
