At first it was ok one day then the next day it would lose power as it got warmed up it would run fine , and nowit is idleing alittle rough and still has no power to move while in gear.I did fine a hose that was split an was hissing air out , i fixed it and it ran fine, then i cleaned the engine with soap and ater and the same problem occured
You have an intake vacuum leak. The vacuum is sucking in water and causing the truck to run rough. It may get better when the truck is hot because this sometimes causes the plastic or gaskets to swell closing up the leak. To confirm ... when it's cold you can start the truck and spray some brake cleaner or quick start around the sides of the intake and you will see the engine will rev up a little.
Hope this helps.

Hi Monkeypaint!
I assume you have power brakes and I gather that it idles properly at times, but dies when the brakes are applied. This sound like a leaking power brake assist vacuum line or diaphram. You can verify this by locating the big vacuum hose connecting the intake manifold to the assist diaphram. This will be about an inch in diameter connected to the round item behind the brake master cylinder next to the firewall.
Well, hope this helps, and good luck! Don't forget to rate this answer!
Thanks!

Any time the computer loses power it has to go threw a set of things to Learn how to run the car, it must go threw relearning process sometimes they never set all flags because you don't drive in conditions to set a flag, for example if you are in the desert and never drive up a hill like in Colorado then you would never meet that flag requirement, as for the low voltage it seems that the ASD shorts out on these rigs and sets the codes so you have to do a pin out of the computer to see if you have a bad ground a bad asd or asd relay and you would have to charge your battery to full capacity and do a voltage test and a load test on the battery and then see if the alternator is putting out.. Check the battery and charging system first.
