I will try a little lube first.. See if that helps at all.
Fritz, tonight when I "accidentally" noticed, the truck was warm.. Had just drove 20 miles or so.. I'll put a eye to it and see if everything seems good and free.. I don't think that water is my problem, I have a water separator, and do my best to drain it on a regular basis (and not that stock thing that was all boogered up when I bought the truck.. )
On another note, the cold idle solenoid you mentioned doesn't work as it should. The "solenoid" is junk.. I probably should fix it.. I get power through the temp sensor, but the solenoid won't "push" out to increase idle speed.. I know it has to be adjusted to function as it should, but it won't kick out, so I've never adjusted it.. (believe it or not, I have invested in a service book.. Sure has made life so much simpler more than once.. )
Thanks again for the input guys.. I'll start with small steps.. Like lubrication (and getting that noisy alternator looked at LOL)
