Unhappy PLease...help me...04 HEMI 5.7L...stall, rough idle, engine light @ ETC bolt on...

The prob is with my 04' 5.7L HEMI
2 mos ago: ETC bolt goes on...poor performance after hoppin on it. goes of after reset. fine for a while(days)...engine light comes on.
1 mo ago: truck stalls out, rough idles, deep sounding
past week: Cleaned TB till shinny, nothing sticking. cleaned PCV, replaced EGR valve..still prob remains!!!
~could it be as simple as an O2 sensor? Does anyone know anything about the position sensor in the pedal? what about the electroni throttle assembly...under he battery?
Missing my truck...hate driving my honda accord around! Any ideas, info

I just got '03 back about a month ago. Similar problem, all of a sudden it just started rough idle and stalling. Codes read as a misfire. Turns out one of the valve springs had "collapsed". Took it to the dealer and they fixed it for me. Not sure if this is the same but it sounds similar.
