the running issue may be that all the sensor values were reset and it still is learning ...you may need to clean the throttle body to help this along

ok so you may have an issue with the reman PCM then I would get another one it should be under warrenty

The fuse is fine but replaced it anyway. As far as the PCM, I can't return it right now because my car is in the Body shop and the truck is the only thing I have to drive.
