here is a little info
Here is a link to what it looks like
As for what really could be causing the problem, it really could be a number of things. Since your truck is a 95 you do not have OBDII. Do you have a CEL on? Also if you do, please post the code(s).
Next when was the last time your truck had a tune-up such as spark plugs, wires, fuel filter, air filter, etc.? I would start with the basics before your start replacing sensors blindly. No offense to the others that posted, but you could spend a few hundred before you get the right one, when all it really needs is a new set of spark plugs. Depending on how mechanically inclined you are, it may be easier just to take it to a shop to have it diagnosed properly and then fix it yourself. Its a win-win, you spend $80 and know exactly what is wrong but save money on the repair, and the shop gets 1 hour of labor to tell you what could take them 10 minutes.
