Update:

This morning in Albuquerque it was 27 degrees. My truck started good. It always takes a few cranks when it's cold. Fires up immediately if it has been less than 10 minutes of shut off time. (Possible leaking injectors? That just came to me as I was typing this.) Anyway, the truck seemed to run fine til I got into traffic and it died. Started right back up but wanted to keep dying. When I would give it gas it would sputter and want to die. Acting like when I had the vacuum line hooked up to the Map sensor.

I took it home, about 10 blocks, and it seemed to run better by the time I got there. I just pulled the other car out and took it to work today. Don't want to be stranded in 27 degree weather.
