Default Rough idle and hesitation

So I have another thread up but figured a second wouldn't hurt so I have a 1995 dodge ram 1500 with a v6 the truck has been bouncing at idle and dies after about 5 minutes or so now that I have tried fixing things. I have done the map sensor the distributor cap wires and spark plugs the tps sensor a O2 sensor and a couple fuses. The trucks purge valve connector was super loose and when I would pull it out and up the truck was fixed now that I replaced the plug it has gone back to it's way but now seems to die much quicker and harder than before. I'm not sure where to go from here due to I have no check engine light or codes that I can see. If anyone has a clue it will help me a ton I need the truck for work monday and my local dealership told me it would take 4 weeks to get help.

Unplug the purge valve, see if it runs any better.

Clean the throttle body. Pay special attention to the IAC well.
