Default rough idle triggered SES light

drove my truck around last night. later on when i came to a stop at stoplights, i notice my truck idling kind a rough. it was a slightly rough. didn't feel like it was going to stall though. the rpm's seemed ok. at cruising speeds it ran smooth. so i am pretty sure it is not the plugs and wires. then eventually the SES light came on, so i knew something was definitely wrong. my truck had problems stalling out about a month ago right after starting it. so i clean the idle air control valve. then it worked fine. so here are a few things i think it might be, any feedback from you guys would be appreciated.

- bad IAC valve
- bad fuel pump
- loose intake tube

BTW, i have a descreened MAF, but it has never been a problem in the last 2 years i took it out
