Default 02' Dakota 4.7 motor hesitation shifting to drive.

Hi, I'm new to this forum and I figured I would see what you guys think about my problem I'm having. On my 4.7 I have recently noticed the motor hesitating and almost stalling when shifting from reverse to drive. I have recently replaced TP sensor and that solved the poor idling I was having. Could this possibly be the idle air control valve? Thanks!

Remove the Throttle Body and do a good cleaning along with the IAC. Check for any vac hose leaks and see if anything improves.
