Default 04 dodge dakota V8 4.7L

My fiancee and I, are experiencing rough idle and chocking out when we first start up our truck. Any ideas as to what it could possibly be. I seem to think it's that carburetor. But, I am a female and tend to be wrong at times... lol

Your truck does not have a carburetor. When was the last tune up? How many miles on it? Had it scanned for codes? Probably could use a throttle body cleaning and run some fuel injector cleaner in it for starters.

Try new spark plugs.
