Marc:
Is the engine missing under a load? Have you checked fuel pressure? How many miles are on the truck?

No it doesn't miss fire or back fire.I only have 24000 miles on my truck.I did notice it is burning rich because my tail pipe inside the tip is very black with black powder in it. So what could it be. Could I need a tune up already. Or should I clean my TPS and TB

At 24K it shouldn't need a tune up. If the truck is running rich, it is an emissions problem and the truck has a 5 year 50K mile 100% warranty on emissions. Take it to a dealer and see what they say.

Let me know how it goes, or if you have questions.
