if the pump burnt from a 1/4 tank you have issues. And I think you have bigger issues than a clogged injector or something. I would think popping would be from over fueling. I could be just spit balling but maybe check timing tables and fueling at idle?

I would say ignition issues BUT you really start to notice ignition issues when you put a load on the engine (ie: speeding up, pulling trailer etc.) Your only having issues at idle. So I would rule out ignition.

Fuel pump doesn't make since if its only poping at idle. If you had popping, chugging, or just wanting to shut off under acceleration or anything off idle I would then check out the fuel system. But your only having issues at idle. So I would rule out Fuel pump.

Your computer can't just forget what tune you used and then guess at how to start and run your truck so I would put tuning out of the question. I woudn't worry about tuning issues unless you changed your tuning and THEN started having problems.

I would check out your leaky y-pipe. Its the simplest to fix out of the above listed. Just loosen up and re-tighen. If that doesn't work and it still leaks pick up some O2 sensor safe RTV and make a better gasket. I would recomend working on a cool or cold exhaust and letting the RTV (if needed) to dry over night or at least for a few hours before testing it out.
