Hello, I just got a 1996 2500 v10 and it has an acceleration surge and rough idle/stumble at constant speeds after driving for around 10 minutes. It doesn't matter how long it has ran or idled, if I shut it off and restart the truck it will drive perfect again for 10 minutes. I changed the TPS and IAC today and no change. Any ideas what else it could be?

Right, I bought a used same and it began to die intermitttently over a period of a couple of weeks, then shut down completely. Using my newly-purchased Sensor Tester Plus from Sunpro (Part # CP 9080, about $30) I was able to eliminate the cam position sensor and confirm that I had a dead crankshaft position sensor. Had to order from China, but so far, so good. I know my response is a year late, but I thought I'd chime in just in case.
