possibly your coolant temp sensor that tell the computer the temperature of your engine so it knows how much fuel to give the truck on start up...mine did the exact same thing...its a cheap fix. there are two temp sensors..one for the Computer and one for the dash...check the one for the COMPUTER..good luck

The FPR on the 3.0 is at the beginning of the fuel rail on the passenger side of the engine. You can even pull it up on autozone or adveanceautoparts.com and see a pic of what it looks like. Usually chrome, round, bout 1.5 inches in diameter, three small screws that hold it on, 5/16 alan key, has vacuum line that plugs into the top of it.

As for the temp sensor, if I remember correctly, the one for the ecm is located below the tstat housing on the front of the motor.
