The problem: Recently my truck has developed a driveability issue. (Under moderate acceleration Only) and at no other time, it has a annoying hesitation problem. I might add that on occasion after sitting several days when started the engine fires up and runs rough for 2-3 seconds and belches out a puff of black smoke and has a very strong fuel smell. It idles smoothly otherwise,has never stalled, and runs like a bat out of hell under hard acceleration. How about it, anybody have any idea's????? Txs in advance T.

PCM Coolant Temperature Senson, (not to be confused with Gauge Temp sensor or Fan temp sensor).
That's likely your problem.
