The last time I drove my Sonoma, it would hardly accelerate, and when I would come to a stop, the RPMs would decrease a lot, making the truck sound like it was about to die. When I finally reached my destination, there was a slight burning smell.

Is there a check engine light on? If so, getting the truck scanned for trouble codes is the starting point for diagnoses, check this link: https://www.2carpros.com/articles/checking-a-service-engine-soon-or-check-engine-light-on-or-flashing ... if no codes check this link: https://www.2carpros.com/articles/engine-has-low-power-output
