Model = 1994 Dodge Ram 1500 Pickup 5.2 liter 2 wheel drive v8.
Problem = Rough idle shakey. Truck stalls when backing up in reverse or driving forward 5 mph or below.
So far i have replaced all the spark plugs ( splitfire ). Replaced air filter. Replaced all spark plug wires. Cleaned pvc valve. Battery is good @ 14 volts. All spark plugs are dry and have a spark but are a bit white.
I really dont want to take the truck into a shop because im low on money. If anyone has any ideas on what to do or try let me know.. thanks in advance.

Cover the basics, vacuum leaks, Idle Air control, TPS sensor output signal.
Also check the Dodge forums. People over there will be very helpful. It sounds like a problem in the idle fuel circuit. Good Luck.
