I think I may have to separate problems, Im not sure. Occasionally the truck will have no power and I will have to jump it, but it only runs for about as long as I jumped it. I took the battery and alternator to autozone have they both tested fine. Next, the truck runs really rough, when I come to a stop the truck wants to stall and when it does it usually starts right back up but sometimes it doesnt and I jump it to start it again, and now just yesterday I started to see a little smoke coming from the right side of the engine and it smells like its over heating. Im not really sure on the mileage, I would have to go look.

If it' a a v6 it may be ahead gasket loo towards rear on both sides it may be on exhaust manifold. Check fusible links inpic. May be the problem shold be same voltage both sides and check for broken strands.
