The truck won't always idle.

The problem comes & goes,
occurs when the engine is cold & warm,
acts like it has run out of gas,
if you keep one foot on the accelerator it will run,
as soon as you lift your foot it dies,

Maybe unrelated, but since I purchased the truck used, the gas guage does not work right, sometimes it runs out at 1/4 of a tank, the next time does not run out till warning light comes on, either way I have monitored by the mileage.
