I have a 1994 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0L 6cyl 4x4 with 140,000 miles that's been having an idle problem. When I first start the truck in the morning, the idle is very rough. It will shake quite hard and try to die. The truck seems to do fine after it has warmed up, or the problem isn't quite as noticable, there is a slight miss with it warmed up that isn't very noticable unless I'm listening really hard for it. I've also noticed a slight dead spot or hesitation in acceleration. So far, I've changed the distributor cap and rotor, put new plugs and plug wires on it, new pcv valve, new dpfe sensor, new vacuum regulator, new egr valve, cleaned the MAF sensor, cleaned the IAC valve, new coil, nothing I've done has seemed to help much at all. I suspected the MAF was not working, so I unplugged it and my truck really ran rough with it unplugged and I got the CEL with it unplugged. My CEL hasn't came on with the MAF plugged in. I ran my codes on it and all I got was a code 111, which is an all clear code. I've also tried running a couple of cans of fuel injector cleaner through it, all to no effect. Has anyone else had this problem and solved it? I would sure appreciate some advise here, I'm about at the end of any ideas.
