you could clean it buy removing it and spraying some electrical contact cleaning spray on it.

i sprayed some stuff on it last friday...the throttle response was amazing and felt like a new truck...but the idle is the same...i guess i have to wait until it gets worse...

i took it to the dealership last friday and they said everthing was normal and they didnt feel anything different (when they drove it around the car lot before actually taking it in)..and if they did take it in and didnt find a problem, it would cost me about 180 bucks for time even though its under warranty still...i hope this problem gets worse quick cuz my warrany is getting ready to expire

Did You Check Your Fuel Pressure Regulator??????
If You Did And It Was Ok, Then With The Truck Running, Try Spraying Some Carb Cleaner Around The Base Of The Intake Manifold Where It Meets The Head... If It Changes You Have A Vacuum Leak!!!!
Hope This Helps
