At idle sometimes truck acts like its going to choke down {skips} check engine light will flash on and off or even stays on then goes off in a day or so and truck runs normal. Could it be fuel injecters, Idle Air Control Valve, computer going bad or just the gas cap not sealing?

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis, finding out what's going on.
