Not to worry.
1. Take off the throttle body and clean it with carb cleaner. Take out the IAC in the back and clean it GENTLY without pushing the pintle (d!ck looking thing). This part controls idle.

2. Get a new front NTK oxygen sensor.

Good as new.

I know I am new the ram 360 as well. But I have learned that the Idol air temperature sensor is another one that are create a rough idol as well along with the the o2 and the idle air.

but just keep going and don’t give up once you get the truck running right it is such a great truck

I love my 1995
