Bought truck used, a few days after purchase noticed that at an idle the rpm would jump up, and only did this every few days or so and only for a second. Then about one month after I purchased the vehicle, I drove about one block to store and back, hardly far enough to warm up the engine, and when I got to the store the truck had an issue starting. It started but when it did almost wanted to stall for first few seconds. Then drove it home and when I got home I tried turning it off and starting it again, same issue, and then warning comes on saying engine too hot, A/C will not turn on and the engine temperature gauge did not seem to be working, was under 75. So I thought what's wrong may be a sensor or something along that line.
If anyone knows what this can be please email me at Randal.berard@gmail.com
