For your truck, don’t know if you’ve already done it or thought about it, but I’d drain the oil and check for metal flakes or shavings. Maybe cut the filter open too

Reminds me of when I first bought my 76 F100 4x4 and the rag joint in the steering shaft was falling apart.. You weren't so much steering it as guiding it down the road, you'd have to turn it to about 9-9:30 and 2 before it'd start doing anything and then you'd immediately have to go back to the other direction.. on top of that the speedo was massively off so I was driving across base well in excess of the speed limit.. damn glad no SP saw me... *sigh I miss that truck.

If the idle air control is removable, remove it ,clean it with WD40. Some carb cleaners are hard on the plastic and wiring coating. Clean the passages with throttle body cleaner. Idle air controls get sticky after they get oil and dirt on them.

Craig you might wanna try doing a valve adjustment on the mustang to help how it runs. Ive got a 98 silverado and Its been sounding cammed as hell on idle and i did a compression test and valve adjustment. She had 0 ZERO compression on cyl5 and 8 cause the valves were too tight. Quick adjustment and she makes more noise cranking it for a split second than idling
