    Hello. 1996 2.7l

    When my truck is warm and I have to stop at a stoplight, after about 20 seconds the revs drop suddenly a few hundred rpm and then pick back up again right away, this repeats every 5-10 seconds afterwards, it causes the whole truck to shake a bit.
    This only seems to happen when the truck is warm, in drive, foot on the brake.

    This caused the truck to stall one time as I hit the gas just as the revs were dropping.

    Can’t figure out what the problem is.

    No codes. The truck runs very well otherwise.
