Default K1500 4x4 bogs down
I have a k1500 4x4 manual with a 4.3 in it. For some reason while in 1st and 2nd gear, when I press the clutch in and come to a stop, the idle drops really low as if it were to die, but then come right back up. No engine light, and hard to diagnose myself.

Any input?

Sometimes. Timing has been a pain. Factory setting is at 0 degrees, but my truck dies at 0, so I have it at 4, and is running really rich.

Sorry for not replying for a bit, I figured no one knew what it could be.

I'm not expert by any means but it sounds like it could possibly be the mass air flow sensor. I still get the same problem

I would remove the idle air control motor and clean the pintle and air passages for starters.
