Replaced tps, iac, map sensor runs rough at idle and stalls at lights. Has 4.9l wo ac checked all that I see. Have this truck along time and the only thing I think is a vacuum leak. No! Still has to be something electrical

Yes, vacuum leak.

Check the intake gasket very carefully. Common failure

There is a vacuum valve by the fuel pressure regulator 2port electric come from charcoal can splits and goes to both sides of throttle body by iac. Maybe it's bad?

What I think is the electric part of it is not letting the vacuum open. The way it seems to me is it works on throttle demand, all this started when my starter solenoid shorted out
