Perhaps you are getting condensation on your distributor.

Well I'm going to say this, if your truck is EFI you shouldn't have to mess with the idle at all unless somebody messed with it in the past, or atleast that was what I was told when I messed with my idle screw a while back and had to take it to a mechanic to get fixed. My problem turned out to be vacuum related.
