I had a friend hook up tohis computer. It said 7cylinder not fireing correctly. Changed plugs and wires.now the truck upon starting is stalling until warm. The computer is not saying anything is wrong. What could be the problem?"

Check the plugs if its the right type and gapped properly to specs-make sure the wires are firmly connected-also verify the firing order
