You ever fix that batt. terminal? A weak battery or a bad connection will wreak havoc with your sensors, wrong voltage getting to them, crap signals going to PCM. All kinds of weird thingshappening as a result.
If not, replace those cables, might be your whole problem right there. You can get the cables with the molded ends at O'Reillys at a reasonable price, probably other places as well. Put them on clean posts with a little dielectric grease.
I'm still having the problem and I'm going to replace the terminals with brass tomorrow. Could the pcm or map sensor be the problem? i think im going to change the cam sensor this week.

A second or two; it drops and immediately picks up again. I just replaced both the top terminals and the map sensor and right now my trucks back to running good. I also looked at the last write up from a shop i went to and they had replaced the cam sensor.
