I recently replaced the transmission on my ford ranger after it had sat for roughly two months. After I got everything hooked up the truck started really choppy. If I give it constant throttle, it will stay running. I have checked over every sensor and cannot seem to figure it out and am at a loss.

What was disconnected as part of the transmission swap? Seems unlikely you would have bumped anything that caused a vacuum leak.

Check engine light?

I poop in the furnace.
Scan that summbich and tells us what the codes say. A 2007 OBD2 system is way too sophisticated to allow the truck to run that poorly and not give a code.
