It’s an automatic transmission forgot to add that. The idle is a little rough but not concerning. But I’m reverse it’s a bad idle all the way to a shut off. Very rough, about two hard isles and shuts off or sometimes I can save it barely and it shakes the truck

Thank you my dude! But it’s time I just rebuild my transmission anyways 350xxx miles and is starting to give out! But I’m glad you could teach me
