I have a 97 2.3l ranger with a 5speed manual with 248,000 miles and just did a tune up. New plugs, wires, coils. When I start it it seems to run a little rough and when I just tap the gas it doesn’t stall, but when I press on the gas’s about half way and I let it off the rpm’s will slow and then it will cut off. I think it may be either the IAC, the TPS, or the MAF. Any help
