hi my 1995 chevy s-10 pickup 4x4 V6 4.3L idles rough. It sounds like it is misfiring or the timing is off or something. It starts if I feather the gas and I have to keep on the gas otherwise it will stumble and die. I replaced the cap and rotor, spark plugs, wires, and vacuum hoses. I dont know what the problem is. maybe the oxygen sensor...idk. If you can help please send a message. thanks.

How many miles do have on the truck? Does the check engine light come on? Does it only seem to run rough at idle or all of the time?

Reply to BOBBY's Post: it has around 87k miles on it. yes the check engin light comes on. If i just have it sitting there it runs rough but when im driving it sounds good once it hits second gear or so. but when I start slowing down its goes rough again.
