When you spray carb cleaner into the throttle body, you say it "runs fine" Does that mean, runs fine but at considerably higher idle? If so, take that can of carb cleaner and spray around every vacuum hose and every gasket on the intake side of the truck. If you get the same result, replace the said hose or gasket.
