I've done a lot to it but nothing has fully fixed the issue. Truck will start fine but rpms will drop until it dies at idle. Once it warms up it's slightly better but will still die unless I give it gas. Very poor acceleration, hesitates when you push the throttle. Checked the fuses and the oxygen heater sensor fuse was blown, replaced it and it seemed better at first, but the next day it was the same. Changed oxygen sensors as well. There was a check engine light in the past but it has went away and not come back. No idea what to do next.
 
Still check for codes. The old code should be in the memory of the computer if you did not disconnect the battery.
 
A 1993 with what engine? What mileage?

Have you checked for accelerator cable stretch?
Is the throttle clean?
Is the PCV system intact?
